EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of General Lee leaving the McLean house after surrendering on April 9,1865. The drawing, executed with meticulous detail on green paper using a pencil, measures 23.5 x 13.3 cm and belongs to The Alfred Waud American Civil War Sketches Collection (1862-1865). Renowned American artist Alfred R Waud (1828-1891) is celebrated for his remarkable sketches depicting scenes from the American Civil War. In this particular artwork, General Lee can be seen departing from the McLean house, symbolizing the end of a long and devastating conflict that had torn apart America. His posture exudes a mix of weariness and resignation as he steps out into an uncertain future. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the immense weight carried by both sides during those tumultuous times. The Liszt Collection proudly presents this historical gem captured by Quint Lox. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon one of the most significant events in American history while appreciating Waud's exceptional talent for capturing emotion through his artistry. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported back to that fateful day in 1865 when General Lee left behind not only a physical location but also an era defined by strife and division – forever etched into our collective memory.
