EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases James B McPherson, a distinguished Union general of the American Civil War. Taken around 1880, this image immortalizes McPherson's commanding presence and resolute gaze. A prominent figure in his military uniform, his bearded face exudes strength and determination. Tragically, McPherson met his untimely demise at the Battle of Atlanta in 1864. His loss was deeply felt as he became the highest-ranking Union general to be killed during the Civil War. This print from Cassells History of the United States by Edmund Ollier serves as a poignant reminder of his sacrifice. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of solemnity to this portrait, emphasizing its historical significance. As we delve into this photograph, we are transported back to the 19th century - a time when America was embroiled in one of its most defining conflicts. McPherson's legacy lives on through this powerful image; it captures not only his physical features but also represents countless other soldiers who fought bravely for their country during that tumultuous period. The print collector has preserved this piece of history for us to reflect upon and honor those who gave their lives for a cause greater than themselves. Let us remember General James B McPherson as an emblematic symbol of courage and dedication amidst the chaos and devastation that defined the American Civil War.
