EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic "Attack on Fort Wagner, Morris Island, South Carolina" in 1863. The lithograph, created by Thomas Nast and now part of a private collection, depicts the intense Union assault led by the 54th Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry. Notably, this regiment was composed of African American soldiers and marked a significant milestone as the first major American military unit to include black troops. Intriguingly portrayed under cover of darkness, the image showcases Colonel Robert Gould Shaw fearlessly leading his regiment on foot towards the fortified walls of Fort Wagner. Tragically, it was during this daring charge that Shaw lost his life. This poignant moment serves as a testament to both his bravery and sacrifice. The lithograph's nocturnal ambiance adds an air of mystery and tension to the scene. With every stroke of Nast's skilled hand, we can almost feel the determination radiating from these courageous soldiers as they confront their formidable adversary. This powerful artwork not only immortalizes a pivotal event in American history but also pays homage to those who fought valiantly for freedom and equality during one of our nation's darkest periods. It stands as a reminder that unity knows no boundaries when fighting for justice against oppression.
