EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the intensity and chaos of the Second Battle of Bull Run during the American Civil War. In the foreground, Federals under General John Pope, numbering 75,000, prepare for battle with their cannons and guns at the ready. Opposite them, Confederates led by General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson, with 55,000 troops, launch a determined assault. The scene is one of tense anticipation, as both sides brace for the impact of the clash that would unfold on August 28-30, 1862. The Second Battle of Bull Run, also known as the Second Manassas, was a significant turning point in the Civil War. After the Union's initial victory at the First Battle of Bull Run in July 1861, the Federal forces were confident of a repeat success. However, their overconfidence was shattered when the Confederates, under the brilliant tactical leadership of Jackson, managed to outmaneuver and defeat the Union army. The defeat was a major morale boost for the Confederacy and a devastating blow to the Union war effort. This historical print, from the extensive collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of conflict and struggle that shaped the course of American history. The image of the 'lazy stand' made by the Federal forces, as they faced the onslaught of the Confederate assault, is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the importance of strategic planning and leadership.
