It was known as Antietam to the North, Sharpsburg to the South. A small hamlet on the bank of the Potomac in southern Maryland transformed into an unshriven final resting place for more than 3,000 soldiers. The sun, still low in the sky, offered no respite, for the end of the day seemed an eternity stretched taut for the fighting, wounded and dying. September 17, 1862, known ever after as the bloodiest single day in American history.
Morning light had barely spread itself over the fields and already General Stonewall Jackson's men had fought Joseph Hooker's 1st Corp to a critical stalemate. As soon as the 2nd Division had arrived in the East Woods, Union General George Greene swiftly led them out into the fields of fire passed the blazing skeleton of the Mumma farm-house. Opposite, the Confederates tried desperately to regroup, pushing the march-wearied units of Kershaw and Walker's divisions into position in front of the squat white target of both Union man and gun, the Dunker Church. One of the leading units of Green's advance towards the West Woods was Lt. Colonel Hector Tyndale's brigade consisting of the 5th, 7th, and 66th Ohio. Immediately upon entering the open ground between the East and West Woods, they encountered the remnants of Colquitt's Georgians and engaged in a hot firefight along a fence line just south of the North Woods that ended in a bayonet charge by the Federals. The staunch Georgians fell back, with the charging Ohioans close at their heels. With this taste of victory, the Ohioans pushed on, only to find themselves in the very "hellspot" of charge and counter-charge facing the Confederate's avid defense of the West woods. The brave Ohioans, precariously low on ammunition, managed to hold valuable ground for more than two hours under the intense fire of troops from both the Carolinas and Virginia. After hours of aggressive defense and their stubborn refusal to yield ground, reluctantly the Ohioans were forced to commit a noble retreat, leaving scores of comrades as silent testimony to that day's courage. This withdrawal closed further action on that part of the field near the Dunker Church. In his uniquely distinct approach to depicting the Civil War and its common heroes - the everyday soldier - Dan Nance suspends this moment in history with clarity emotion, and depth. Sweeping through rank and file with understanding and a slightly tilted composure, Nance offers the viewer more than just a picture - but a chance to join in tribute. | |
