EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the historic Battle of Fort Wagner during the American Civil War in 1863. The image depicts the gallant charge of the Fifty-Fourth Massachusetts (Colored) Regiment, an African American unit that played a pivotal role in this fierce battle. The Second Battle of Fort Wagner was a significant moment in history as it showcased the bravery and determination of black soldiers fighting for their freedom and equality. Led by Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, these troops fearlessly charged into battle against Confederate forces, waving their flag proudly. Engraved by Currier & Ives in 1863, this lithograph immortalizes the intensity and sacrifice witnessed on that fateful day. The exterior scene shows smoke-filled skies and a chaotic battlefield where life and death hung in balance. The image serves as a reminder of both the horrors of war and the resilience displayed by those who fought for justice. It symbolizes not only the courage of African American soldiers but also their crucial contribution to Union Army's efforts during this tumultuous period. Granger Art on Demand presents this piece from its collection, allowing us to reflect upon our nation's past struggles while honoring those who valiantly fought for freedom amidst adversity.
