EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Battle of Antietam, 1862" takes us back to a significant moment in American history. The colour lithograph by Thure de Thulstrup vividly portrays the intensity and chaos of this pivotal battle. As smoke billows from cannons, Union and Confederate forces clash on the battlefield, their determination etched on their faces. Amidst the turmoil, cavalry soldiers charge on horseback, adding an element of swift movement to the scene. Wounded soldiers lie scattered across the landscape, reminding us of the heavy toll war exacts on human lives. Antietam Creek flows calmly nearby as if oblivious to the carnage unfolding around it. This image serves as a poignant reminder of North America's past struggles and sacrifices during one of its bloodiest conflicts. The bravery and resilience displayed by both sides are evident in every brushstroke captured by Thulstrup. Beyond its historical significance, this artwork also highlights our enduring bond with animals. Horses play a crucial role in warfare - loyal companions carrying troops into battle while risking injury themselves. Their presence adds depth to this portrayal of armed forces engaged in combat. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Peter Newark Military Pictures' private collection, let us reflect upon how far we have come since those tumultuous times and honor those who fought valiantly for their beliefs amidst such adversity.
