EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense Battle of Gettysburg, a pivotal moment in American history during the Civil War. Taking place from July 1st to July 3rd, 1863, this battle marked the end of General Robert E. Lee's invasion of the North. The image showcases the sheer devastation and chaos that unfolded on those fateful days. Painted with oil by Edwin Forbes, an esteemed American artist known for his military artwork, this masterpiece brings to life the intensity and brutality experienced by both Union and Confederate forces. The level of detail in Forbes' work is truly remarkable as he depicts military artillery firing amidst a backdrop of smoke-filled skies. The Battle of Gettysburg resulted in some of the heaviest casualties seen throughout the entire war. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by brave soldiers on both sides who fought valiantly for their beliefs. Dating back to 1865 but completed in 1895, this print holds historical significance not only for its subject matter but also as a testament to Forbes' talent as an artist. It allows us to reflect upon one of America's most significant conflicts while appreciating artistry at its finest.
