EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph by Currier and Ives depicts the intense bombardment of Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina during the American Civil War. The undated print showcases the exterior of the fort as it endures a relentless siege from Confederate forces. The image captures the chaos and destruction that engulfed this pivotal moment in history. Thick plumes of smoke rise into the air as cannonballs rain down upon Fort Sumter, setting parts of it ablaze. The Union army, represented by their iconic flag flying proudly atop the fort, valiantly defends against these relentless attacks. Nathaniel Merritt's skillful artistry brings to life this crucial battle between North and South. With meticulous attention to detail, he portrays every element: from soldiers on both sides engaged in combat to ships positioned off shore ready for action. As we gaze at this lithograph, we are transported back to a time when our nation was divided by war but united in its determination for victory. It serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made and lives lost during this tumultuous period. Currier and Ives have once again demonstrated their ability to capture significant moments through their artwork. This print is not only an historical document but also a testament to their artistic prowess.
