EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a significant moment during the American Civil War. Titled "CIVIL WAR: BLOCKADE, 1861" it showcases the daring escape of the Confederate cruiser, Sumter, as it runs through the Union blockade at Pass a L Outre in Louisiana on June 30th, 1861. The image transports us back to this tumultuous time in history when tensions between North and South were at their peak. The Sumter sails defiantly amidst billowing smoke, symbolizing the determination and resilience of the Confederacy. Its sleek silhouette cuts through the water with purpose, representing hope for those who fought for Southern independence. Intriguing details emerge upon closer inspection - a lighthouse stands tall in the background, serving as both a beacon of guidance and an ominous reminder of Union control over these waters. The Mississippi River flows nearby, connecting this scene to its deep southern roots. This lithograph was created by an anonymous American artist in 1869 but holds timeless significance even today. It is part of Granger Art on Demand's collection that beautifully preserves historical moments like these. As we gaze upon this print from Granger Art on Demand titled "CIVIL WAR: BLOCKADE, 1861" we are reminded of how art can transport us to pivotal moments in history and evoke emotions that resonate across generations.
