EDITORS COMMENTS
The Battle of Kenesaw Mountain, Georgia, was a pivotal moment in the American Civil War. This photo print, engraved by Kurz & Allison in 1891, captures the intensity and chaos of this historic battle. In vivid color lithography, the image depicts the fierce confrontation between Union and Confederate forces on June 27th, 1864. The wood pile in the foreground serves as a stark reminder of the harsh conditions these soldiers faced during their struggle for control over Kennesaw Mountain. Amidst billowing smoke and gunfire, troops from both sides clash with unwavering determination. The composition exudes tension as armed forces engage in a desperate fight for victory. It is evident that this battle was not easily won. Led by U. S Army General William T. Sherman, Union forces launched an attack against Confederate General Joseph E. Johnston's troops. However, despite their efforts, it ended in a Confederate triumph. This print serves as a powerful testament to the bravery and sacrifice displayed by soldiers on both sides of this conflict. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon one of America's most turbulent periods while honoring those who fought valiantly during this tumultuous time. As we examine this image today, let us remember that history is not just about victories or defeats but also about understanding our past so that we may shape a better future together.
