Dusk and a fresh layer of snow give this granite monument a quiet, almost solitary look, with the eagle at its crest standing out against the fading sky. Gettysburg holds more than 1,300 monuments, markers and memorials, and many of them, like this one, use the eagle as a symbol of the Union and of national endurance after the battle of July 1-3, 1863. Winter views of the field like this one show how the battlefield's memorials look when the crowds are gone, and how the stone itself becomes part of the landscape.
