Gettysburg Battlefield: A Bird's Eye View of the Hallowed Ground where the Union and Confederate Armies Clashed in 1863 This bird's eye view of the Gettysburg Battlefield transports us back in time to the pivotal moment in American history when the Union and Confederate armies clashed during the Civil War. The image, believed to have been created around 1863, offers a unique perspective of the hallowed ground where this significant battle unfolded. The Union Army, under the command of Major General George G. Meade, is depicted in the northern portion of the battlefield, with their positions along Cemetery Hill, Culp's Hill, and Cemetery Ridge. The strategic heights of Cemetery Hill and Culp's Hill were crucial to the Union defense, as they provided a commanding view of the battlefield and allowed the Union forces to repel numerous Confederate assaults. In the southern portion of the battlefield, the Confederate Army, led by General Robert E. Lee, is shown advancing towards the Union lines. The iconic Peach Orchard, Devil's Den, and Little Round Top are all visible in the Confederate sector, having played pivotal roles in the fierce fighting that took place there. The Gettysburg Battlefield, fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863, is considered one of the most important engagements of the American Civil War. The Union victory at Gettysburg marked a turning point in the war and boosted morale both domestically and internationally. Today, the battlefield stands as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during this defining moment in American history.
