1864 Arms of the United States Patriotic Poster – J.H. Buford Americana Wall Art

Behold this elaborate martial allegory of the United States by J.H. Buford / J.E. Baker from 1864. We see at the top our Lady Liberty or "Columbia", wearing a Phrygian cap and armed with sword, shield, and the American flag, and enthroned in the clouds. The Latin words "E Pluribus Unum" and an arch of thirteen stars appear above her.

Below, an eagle perches atop a shield adorned by the stars and stripes. In his talons he holds arrows and the symbolic olive branch. At left stands an American Indian with a bow in hand. At right is a sailor with an anchor and four flags. Around the base of the shield are muskets, tomahawks, cannon, cannonballs, and a sword.

Below, almost hidden in darkness, is a Union encampment (left) in sight of the U.S. Capitol and the Potomac River (right).
