Product Details:

General Sheridan at the Battle of Five Forks, Virginia by Henry Alexander Ogden captures Union General Philip H. Sheridan in a moment of dynamic leadership during the decisive battle of April 1, 1865, near the end of the Civil War. Mounted on horseback and energetically leading his troops, Sheridan is depicted rallying Union forces amid the intensity of battle. His aggressive posture and commanding presence reflect the bold tactics he employed to rout Confederate forces under General George Pickett. Ogden places Sheridan at the forefront, surrounded by galloping cavalry and advancing infantry, with smoke and chaos rising from the battlefield in the background. The scene emphasizes movement, determination, and momentum—hallmarks of Sheridan's leadership style. The Union victory at Five Forks broke the Confederate defensive line and led directly to the evacuation of Petersburg and Richmond, making this painting not just a portrait of a general, but a visualization of a pivotal moment in the war’s final days.
