Offered here is an original antique wood engraved print published in Harper's Weekly Newspaper (1866). The text informs the reader the scene is aboard the sidewheel steamer the "River Queen". The River Queen had been closely associated with President Abraham Lincoln and General Ulysses S. Grant while operating on the Potomac River, and was used for an unsuccessful peace conference during the last year of the American Civil War. It was thought to be Pres. Abraham Lincoln's favorite vessel. The print measures 8" x 14" with wide margins, perfect for framing. At over a hundred fifty years old, this engaging original print is highly displayable.
