General Pickett Receives the Fateful Order to Charge at Gettysburg
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness a pivotal moment in American history during the Battle of Gettysburg. The image depicts General George E. Pickett on horseback, receiving the fateful order to charge from his superior, General James Longstreet. It is July 3rd, 1863, and tensions are high as Confederate forces prepare for their ill-fated assault. The color litho by Henry Alexander Ogden beautifully captures the intensity and gravity of this historic event. The vibrant hues bring life to the scene while adding depth and emotion to each figure portrayed. As we gaze upon these two military leaders, it becomes evident that they are fully aware of the immense risks involved in this daring maneuver. General Longstreet's stern expression reflects both determination and concern as he entrusts Pickett with leading what would become known as "Pickett's Charge".

This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of not only the bravery displayed by these men but also the devastating consequences that followed their actions.

As we reflect on this powerful image captured over a century ago, let us remember those who fought valiantly during
