A painted scene of a farmhouse and haystack with soldiers in the foreground places this image in the Civil War period, and the Gettysburg label on the board points to the 1863 battle there as its likely subject. Battle paintings of the era often combined a pastoral setting with troops and smoke, and farmland like this was typical of the rolling countryside that surrounded the town. The Gettysburg fighting spread across farm fields, fences and outbuildings, so a rural homestead was a common feature of such scenes. Because the record gives few specifics about the painter or date, the picture is best read as a general portrait of how Pennsylvania farm country looked when armies crossed it.
