Product Details:

"General Sherman at Kenesaw Mountain During the Battle of Allatoona Pass" by Henry Alexander Ogden presents a vivid and dramatic portrayal of Union General William Tecumseh Sherman during a key moment in his Atlanta Campaign in 1864. The Battle of Allatoona Pass (October 5, 1864) took place after Sherman had taken Atlanta. From a high vantage point, Sherman observes the fierce fighting below, communicating with signal officers or aides as smoke curls over the rugged terrain. The composition emphasizes Sherman's strategic distance from the battlefield, reflecting his command role and reliance on telegraph and signal communications. Ogden captures the harsh, mountainous landscape of northern Georgia, the vulnerability of the Union supply line, and the tension of Sherman's decision to defend it. The painting conveys both the tactical complexity and the psychological weight of war leadership during a turning point in the Civil War.
