EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the stern gaze of General Don Carlos Buell, a prominent figure in the Union army during the American Civil War. The artist, Brandy, skillfully portrays Buell's commanding presence through intricate engraving techniques. General Buell served as a key organizer for both the Armies of the Potomac and Ohio before leading a crucial campaign against Confederate forces under Braxton Bragg in Kentucky. However, his command was ultimately questioned due to his perceived slowness in pursuing retreating enemy troops after the Battle of Perryville. In this portrait, Buell's distinguished features are highlighted by his full beard and mustache, symbolizing wisdom and authority. His military uniform further emphasizes his role as a respected leader on the battlefield. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this 19th-century image, evoking a sense of historical significance. As we delve into this remarkable piece of history captured by The Print Collector, we are reminded of General Buell's contributions to our country during one of its most challenging times. This print serves as an enduring tribute to General Don Carlos Buell and stands as a testament to his unwavering dedication to duty and service.
