Product Details:

The War is Over by Julian Scott paints a solemn, reflective scene shows two opposing cavalrymen at dusk—one mounted, the other standing beside his horse—pausing by a shallow puddle under a vast, subdued sky. The fading light and muted tones suggest the end of both the day and the war for both side of the conflict, creating a quiet, almost reverent atmosphere. Unlike more dramatic depictions of battle, Scott’s focus here is emotional resolution: the soldiers’ postures convey relief, exhaustion, and perhaps uncertainty about what lies ahead. A Civil War veteran himself, Scott imbues the moment with authenticity and restraint, emphasizing not victory, but the human experience of peace after prolonged conflict.
