Its title, "The Last Offer of Reconciliation, In Remembrance of Lincoln," ties Ulysses S. Grant's name to the postwar hope of binding the nation together after the Civil War. Printed imagery of this kind often appeared in the months after Lincoln's assassination in April 1865, when many Northerners wanted his call for "malice toward none" carried forward into peace. Grant's generous terms at Appomattox Court House, where Robert E. Lee surrendered that same month, gave such pictures a real event to draw on. Viewers today can read the work as both a tribute to Lincoln and a statement about what reunion was supposed to mean.
