Crossing The Rappahannock By Timothy O'Sullivan
The image is part of a remarkable series of at least seven taken by photographer Timothy O?Sullivan on a frantic day for the Union army: August 19, 1862. That day, John Pope?s Army of Virginia was in full retreat, falling back from the Rapidan River through Culpeper County to a new line behind the Rappahannock River, in Fauquier County. The image is one of the most well known photos of the Civil War Period and is even in the Library of Congress Collection.
The Frame measures 15.375in x 19.375in
