The battles of the nineteenth century were marked by intense hand-to-hand struggles, as depicted in the artwork "There Was A Hand-To-Hand Struggle" by WR Wollen in 1902. This painting captures the raw brutality and close-quarters combat that defined many conflicts during this era. One such battle was King Cetewayo's campaign, illustrated in a 1902 artwork bearing his name. The image portrays the fierce determination of both sides as they clashed on the battlefield, highlighting the significance of this historical event. Another notable engagement is portrayed in Evelyn Stuart Hardy's painting "Charge of the 16th Uhlans. " Created in 1902, it showcases a dramatic cavalry charge with lances raised high, symbolizing bravery and valor amidst chaos. "The March of Shiloh, " painted by Frank Feller in 1902, depicts soldiers marching resolutely towards their destination. This artwork encapsulates not only physical endurance but also mental fortitude required during long marches to engage enemies. In "The Prize Was Hotly Contested Steel To Steel" from 1896 (reprinted in 1902), we witness a ferocious clash between adversaries fighting fiercely for victory. The intensity and determination displayed here reflect how battles often hinged on individual acts of heroism and sacrifice. Morgan's escape is another captivating moment captured artistically in 1902. It illustrates an audacious breakout against all odds, showcasing resourcefulness and cunning employed during desperate times. Gordon Frederick Browne's piece titled "The City Was Taken With A Desperate Panic" transports us to a chaotic scene where panic grips those within besieged walls. This depiction emphasizes how fear can drive people to extreme measures when faced with imminent defeat or capture. Behind rough breastworks lay brave Michigan men ready for action; their steadfastness showcased through an artwork dating back to 1902. These soldiers exemplify resilience and unwavering dedication to their cause.
