EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "CIVIL WAR: WHITE HOUSE" captures the haunting ruins of the White House plantation, which was tragically burned by the Union Army during their retreat in Virginia. The image takes us back to a pivotal moment in American history, specifically during the Seven Days Battles and the Peninsular Campaign. The photograph showcases an early morning scene of destruction and devastation. The once majestic exterior of the White House is now reduced to crumbling walls and a solitary chimney standing tall amidst the charred remains. It serves as a stark reminder of the brutal realities faced by both sides during this tumultuous period. In this image, we witness evidence of General McClellan's evacuation strategy as tents dotting the landscape indicate temporary shelter for soldiers on retreat. The desolate atmosphere surrounding White House Landing echoes with stories untold and lives forever changed. Granger Art on Demand has beautifully captured this historical moment through their lens, allowing us to reflect upon America's past struggles while appreciating its resilience. This print serves as a powerful testament to our nation's journey towards unity and healing after enduring such profound division.
