Description: Original Antique Engraving - Bombardment of Fort Sumter - 1861 Title: "Scene on the Floating Battery, Charleston Harbor, During the Bombardment of Fort Sumter" Description benearth image reads: "A very important factor in the bombardment of Fort Sumter was an immense floating battery, which did effective work in the silencing of the fort's guns. Major Anderson directed many of his shots at the floating battery, but while it was struck fifteen or eighteen times, not the slightest impression was made upon its iron-cased sides. Print is from 'Frank Leslie's Illustrated Famous Leaders and Battle Scenes of the Civil War' - published in 1896 Very good condition. Very light discoloration along the top border. Portraits of Major Robert Anderson and General P.G.T. Beauregard - The two leading combatants of the battle are on the back side. Note: The darkened area in the lower half, center of the print, is my own shadow of me blocking the natural light originating behind me. Hey, I never claimed to be good photographer.
