EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving captures General Meade, a distinguished career United States Army officer and civil engineer. Known for his involvement in coastal construction projects, including the creation of several lighthouses, Meade's expertise extended beyond military strategy. He showcased his bravery and leadership during the Second Seminole War and Mexican-American War before rising through the ranks to become a Union general during the American Civil War. However, it was at the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863 that General Meade truly left an indelible mark on history. Defeating Confederate General Robert E. Lee in this pivotal battle, Meade played a crucial role in securing victory for the Union forces. The intricately engraved image transports us back to the 1870s, capturing not only General Meade but also reflecting the illustrative technique popularized during that era. This retro-styled print showcases nineteenth-century artistry while preserving an important piece of American culture and heritage. As we admire this historic artwork by Arkheia from Universal Images Group (UIG), let us remember General George G. Meade's significant contributions to our nation's history – both as a military leader and as an engineer who shaped our coastlines with his innovative constructions such as lighthouses.
