Pickett's Charge, launched on the afternoon of July 3, 1863, was the Confederate assault that ended the Battle of Gettysburg, and this panoramic engraving captures its scale through rows of cavalry, batteries firing into drifting smoke, and the open ground the attackers had to cross. Lee ordered roughly 12,000 Confederate troops forward against the Union center on Cemetery Ridge after a massive artillery bombardment failed to break the line. The attack collapsed under concentrated fire, and the failure marked the turning point of the campaign. Prints of the scene were popular in the decades after the war because they let viewers survey the whole field at once.
