Robert E. Lee is the subject here, shown as a Confederate general in a lithograph portrait, a format that let printmakers produce many copies for a public eager to see the commanders of the war. Lee led the Army of Northern Virginia from 1862 until surrender at Appomattox in April 1865, and his image circulated widely in both the South and the North, where it reflected a deep fascination with the men on the other side. Lithographic portraits like this one often served as keepsakes or wall decorations, so the picture tells as much about wartime demand for images of leaders as it does about Lee himself.
