description

Summary

Signed lower right: A.R. Waud.
Title inscribed under image.
Published in: Harper's Weekly, May 23, 1863.
Inscribed on verso on attached piece of cream paper: If this picture is used and I think it ought to be for the regulars always do well, and seldom get any credit, not belonging to any crowd of voters the artist will notice that two lines are represented or suggested moving up to the crest of the hill where the rebels hold their positions. As the sketch is on so small a scale a little care must be used to bring out the idea.
Gift, J.P. Morgan, 1919 (DLC/PP-1919:R1.2.124)
Forms part of: Morgan collection of Civil War drawings.
