this is the part of the battlefield, also, where oliver wendell holmes, robert gould shaw are going to be wounded. some celebrities are found in this part of the battlefield, as well. it is interesting to note, could hope have just portrayed artillery hell? yes. but what does he do instead? he includes yet another, not totally futile, but a very desperate charge made by union soldiers, trying to convey, i would argue, not quite anti-war, but it almost suggests an anti-war sentiment. someone who is uncomfortable, certainly, with combat and seeking to express the repulsiveness of battle. the unnatural transformation of landscapes he loved and admired so much. the final element i want us to think about is, again, how photographs influence the paintings. once again, i have given you all a close-up. i apologize for going back and forth. that scene blown up is this scene right here. if you're at the painting on the battlefield because the pain is so large, it reads relatively clearly. on a screen of this size, it reads as a pretty obscure spot. it is incredibly telling that hope does what? h
