EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored engraving captures a significant moment in American history, showcasing Confederate General Robert E. Lee astride his beloved war-horse, Traveler. The photograph was taken by M. Miley in 1876, immortalizing the renowned commander during the tumultuous era of the Civil War. General Lee's imposing figure is depicted in his distinguished uniform, symbolizing his leadership and dedication to the Southern cause. Mounted on Traveler, an iconic steed known for its strength and endurance, both horse and rider exude an air of power and determination. The image transports us back to the 19th century when America was divided between North and South. It serves as a poignant reminder of the historic conflict that shaped our nation's destiny. As one gazes upon this vintage print, it becomes evident how deeply intertwined General Lee's legacy is with Virginia and the Confederacy. With every detail meticulously hand-colored, this artwork breathes life into history itself. The vibrant hues bring forth a sense of authenticity while emphasizing the significance of this historical moment. As we reflect on this piece from North Wind Picture Archives, let us remember that it represents more than just a military leader on horseback; it encapsulates an era defined by war and struggle for unity within our great nation - reminding us never to forget our past nor cease striving towards progress for all Americans today.
