About This Item

1862. Graphite on cream wove paper, 6 5/8 x 10 3/8 inches (167 x 262 mm), signed, titled and inscribed in pencil in the lower margin. With inscriptions in pencil on the verso and multiple horizontal and vertical folds throughout the sheet area. Handling creases and a small fold-associated edge tear extending horizontally 1/4-inch into the sheet at the right-center sheet edge. Likely a study for an illustration for Harper's Weekly, for which Wiser was a Civil War-era illustrator, focusing on shipwrecks and battles occurring along the mid-Atlantic coast.
