EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "CIVIL WAR: SHARPSHOOTER" takes us back to a defining moment in American history. The image showcases an Army of the Potomac sharpshooter, fully immersed in battle, as he ingeniously improvises a rest for his rifle. The wood engraving, created in 1863 by A. R. Waud and reproduced here with exceptional detail, transports us to the heart of the Civil War era. The artist's skillful hand captures every intricate line and shadow, allowing us to witness this soldier's determination firsthand. In this mid-battle scene, we see a lone horse grazing nearby amidst the vast field of grass. The soldier stands tall and focused, embodying bravery and resilience despite the chaos surrounding him. His rifle is firmly supported by a makeshift rest crafted from whatever materials were available at that time. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are reminded of the immense sacrifices made by those who fought on both sides during this tumultuous period in our nation's history. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of their unwavering dedication to their cause. Granger Art on Demand has expertly preserved this historical gem from Alfred Waud's original sketch into an exquisite print that allows viewers today to connect with one pivotal moment during America's most devastating conflict - The Civil War.
