EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the legendary General William T. Sherman, a prominent figure in American history. Born in 1820 and passing away in 1891, Sherman's impact on the United States Army during the American Civil War cannot be overstated. In this portrait, General Sherman stands tall and proud, his arms folded across his chest as a symbol of strength and determination. His military uniform exudes authority and expertise, reflecting his significant role as a leader during one of America's most tumultuous periods. Beyond his military achievements, General Sherman is known for signing the Treat of Fort Laramie in 1868 with Sioux Native Americans. However, he also faced criticism for implementing harsh scorched earth policies that devastated parts of the country. Captured by an anonymous American photographer from the 19th century, this photograph offers us a glimpse into the life of an influential man who left an indelible mark on North America. Preserved within a private collection but made accessible through Peter Newark American Pictures, this image serves as a reminder of General William T. Sherman's legacy. With its timeless appeal and historical significance, this striking portrait invites viewers to reflect upon not only one man's journey but also the broader narrative of America itself – its triumphs and controversies alike.
