Additional Information
Perhaps one of the most important and influential presidential speeches in American history, Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address is commemorated in this distinguished image by M.T. Sheahan of Boston, Massachusetts. This piece serves as an enduring tribute to Lincoln's legacy as one of the greatest American presidents, who led the nation through the Civil War, upheld the constitutional union, defeated the Confederate Army, and played a pivotal role in abolishing slavery in the United States.
Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address at the formal dedication of Soldiers' National Cemetery in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, nearly five months after the Union's victory in the Battle of Gettysburg, the deadliest battle of the war. Though the speech was only 271 words, its concise yet powerful message gave it greater gravity, making it one of the most acclaimed speeches ever delivered by an American president. The speech's opening references the signing of the Declaration of Independence, 87 years earlier, emphasizing its principles of liberty and equality while honoring the Union soldiers who gave their lives at Gettysburg.
The Battle of Gettysburg marked Confederate General Robert E. Lee's second attempt to invade the North. The brutal three-day conflict resulted in 50,000 casualties, making it a pivotal moment in the war.
This commemoration stands as a lasting tribute to Lincoln's legacy, celebrating his vision, leadership, and the enduring impact of the Gettysburg Address on American history.
