History Recorded In Art


This painting is about the civil war. The Civil War which took place from 1861 to 1864 was fought between the North (Union) and the South (Confederates). The result of the war is defined in this next piece of historical art.








This painting is about the Emancipation
Proclamation. This very important document that President Lincoln addressed freed the slaves from the Southern States and started the road to gaining civil rights for African Americans.
