Rebel Works in Front of Atlanta, GA, No. 4

George N. Barnard

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two cannons positioned on rough, earthy terrain. Next to them is a small tent where three individuals are seated. The ground is worn with wooden planks scattered around. In the distance, a soldier is sitting on a mound, facing away with a rifle over his shoulder. Beyond him are trees along the horizon, under a sky filled with clouds. The photo has a monochrome color palette, giving it a historical feel.
