EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut print takes us back to the turbulent times of the American Civil War. The scene depicts General Early's cavalry, part of the Confederate army, invading Maryland in 1864. As they ride through a picturesque countryside road, these soldiers are seen engaging in an act that was all too common during wartime - taking livestock from local farmers. The image beautifully captures the essence of this historic moment, showcasing both the military might and resourcefulness of General Early's troops. With their horses lined up along a supply wagon filled with provisions, it is evident that these Confederates were on a mission to secure vital supplies for their cause. Amidst the chaos and destruction brought about by war, this illustration reminds us of the harsh realities faced by ordinary people caught in its grip. Farmers who relied on their livestock for sustenance and livelihoods now find themselves at gunpoint as their animals are forcibly taken away. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we witness not only a rebellion against authority but also witness how war can strip away humanity and reduce individuals to mere pawns in a larger game. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder of our shared heritage and offers insight into one aspect of life during this tumultuous period in American history.
