Description: This is a beautiful and rare chromolithograph by L. Prang of the Second Bull Run Monument (National Battlefield Park, Manassas, Virginia), which is in the original, deep walnut frame. The print belonged to members of the family of General Robert Potter who commanded the 51st New York Volunteer Infantry in IX Corps at Second Bull Run and has remained in the family, hanging in their house in upstate New York. The image depicts the monument with incredible detail and clarity as it appeared when the monument was dedicated in an elaborate ceremony on June 10, 1865.You can see that the soldiers who constructed the monument had placed artillery shells on the bottom two levels of the base and used cannon balls to decorate the top of the monument. Those have been stolen by souvenir hunters in the 19th Century. Even the wooden fence was torn down to sell as souvenirs. Frame: 16.25" x 14.50" (frame depth is about 4 inches) Viewable print measurements: 11.5" x 9.5" . The print is in the original, deep, decorative Walnut Frame from 1865 and has been well-preserved over the years. The print is a great addition to any collection of Civil War memorabilia, especially for those interested in the 2nd Battle of Bull Run, Prang prints, etc.
