EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the haunting remnants of two transport steamers, Maple Leaf and Genl. Hunter, sunk by torpedoes during the American Civil War in St. Johns River, Florida. The detailed drawing was skillfully created by Alfred R Waud, a renowned American artist celebrated for his exceptional sketches depicting this pivotal period in history. Waud's masterful strokes bring to life the tragic scene as we witness the sunken vessels resting on the riverbed. The eerie atmosphere surrounding these wrecks is palpable; it serves as a poignant reminder of the devastating toll that war exacts upon both man and machine. The Maple Leaf and Genl. Hunter were once vital lifelines for transportation along this waterway, but now they lie silently beneath its surface, their stories forever etched into history. This image transports us back to a time when conflict raged across America and illustrates how even peaceful rivers became battlegrounds. Quint Lox has expertly captured this historical artifact from the Liszt Collection with great attention to detail and reverence for its significance. Through his lens, we are able to appreciate not only Waud's artistic prowess but also gain insight into an important chapter of our nation's past. As we gaze upon this evocative print, let us reflect on those who sacrificed so much during this tumultuous era while cherishing their memory through artistry such as Waud's remarkable drawings.
