The Battery
Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: August 16, 2008
Caption: The Battery's View of Cemetery Ridge - July 3
Additional Description: Looking east over the barrel of a Confederate 12-pounder Napoleon. On the left of frame on the far ridge line is the white Brian Barn, behind which is the modern Cyclorama building. Scanning to the right are several monuments beside the copse of trees, which was the target for Longstreet's Assault. Almost in the center on the horizon is the U.S. Regulars Monument. The red barn of the Codori Farm is just right of that. Finally on the far right is the Pennsylvania Monument.
