This print takes us back in time to the tumultuous era of the American Civil War. The hand-colored woodcut, created in the 19th century, showcases a map of Washington DC and its vicinity at the outset of this historic conflict. With its vintage charm and intricate details, this illustration offers a glimpse into the rich heritage and traditional artistry of that era. The map depicts an aerial view of Washington DC, nestled along the banks of the Potomac River. It highlights key landmarks such as Alexandria in Virginia, which played a significant role during this period. As we study this piece closely, we can almost feel ourselves transported to those uncertain times when our nation was divided. Through this image, we are reminded of America's complex history and how it has shaped our present-day society.
