"To The Grand Army of the Republic (Our Old Commander, General U. S. Grant)" is a chromolithograph print created by Currier and Ives in 1885. It depicts Ulysses S. Grant, the Union Army commander during the American Civil War, riding a horse and leading a group of soldiers. The print is a patriotic tribute to Grant and the soldiers of the Union Army, and it is a classic example of the work of Currier and Ives, a renowned American printmaking firm. This print uses a patriotic color palette and heroic poses to create an idealized representation of the American Civil War and Grant's legacy.
