GENERAL BANKS' DIVISION RECROSSING THE POTOMAC FROM WILLIAMSPORT, MD., TO ATTACK " STONEWALL" JACKSON.-BAND OF THE FORTY-SIXTH PENNSYLVANIA PLAYING NATIONAL AIRS ON THE VIRGINIA SHORE
- From a sketch by Edwin Forbes

The Civil War in the United States [1885]

This image depicts the 46th PA Regiment Band plays national airs on the shore of the Potomac on May 25, 1862. The artist, Edwin Forbes, was one of many artists sent to the frontlines by Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Newspaper in 1862 to capture the horrors of war in drawings. I was unable to find a Frank Leslie’s newspaper that contained this drawing originally. It may have only been published in a rare 1885 publication by Frank Leslie called The Civil War in the United States.
