Published by Thomas Kelly in New York around 1867, this lithograph shows how the Battle of Gettysburg was remembered within two years of the war's end. The battle was fought over three days in early July 1863 in south-central Pennsylvania, and its outcome ended Robert E. Lee's invasion of the North at a heavy cost in casualties on both sides. Printed by Wm. C. Robertson, the sheet reflects the postwar demand for large battle images that were displayed in homes, veterans' halls and businesses.
