EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures General Robert E. Lee, the renowned American Confederate soldier, in 1865. As the foremost Confederate general during the American Civil War, Lee assumed command of the Army of Northern Virginia in 1862. In his final year as a military leader, he was appointed General-in-Chief of Confederate forces but ultimately faced surrender at Appomattox Courthouse on April 9th, 1865. Taken after this historic moment, the photograph showcases Lee standing proudly in a basement below the back porch of his home on Franklin Street in Richmond, Virginia. The image exudes strength and determination as Lee dons his military dress suit with an impressive beard that adds to his commanding presence. The significance of General Robert E. Lee extends beyond his role as a soldier; he remains an esteemed figure for many in the American South even today.
