THE BATTLE OF ATLANTA.
Bitterest Fights OF the Civil War on
Exhibition in Minneapolis
How It Impresses The Old Soldiers ana
Spectators Generally-R "Reminiscences
of Some Of the Men who Fought in
the Battle.


There has been recently placed on exhi.
bition in Minneapolis in great circular
building erected for it's occupancy war
panorama depicting tho Battle of Atlanta.
The panorama is similar in style and
arrangement TO the famous Battle OF
Gettysburg" which has long been on exhi-
bition in Chicago. The word panorama
conveys to the mind Of one who has not
seen one of these great pictures. but a
faint idea OF the effect secured by combi-
nation Of art and nature. The common
idea OF a panorama is that OF series of
moving scenes. The modern war panora-
ma differs radically from this commonly
accepted idea. Instead of series OF
views the spectator is translated by an in
genious device to point of observation
which enables him to command the entire
field and wide expanse of country. The
huge painting is hung around the wallis OF
thegreat circular building, and the spectator
is practically placed in the very center
oil great landscape stretching away in AT
lanta" to from fifteen to twenty miles in
every direction. No description which can
be given OF one of these war paintings can
convey to the initiated mind any idea of
their effect Ingenious as is the idea it is not
one OF American origin. The first OF these
panoramas was painted in Europe as long
ago as 1910, and now in every European
city OF Importance some famous battle
scene is depicted in one OF these war pic
lures. The renewed interest in the battles
of the late Civil War inspired by Gen.
Grants book so generally bought and
read, and the series OF papers by the Off
GERS in the late war which have recently
been published in the Century Magazine
gives additional interest and value TO the
panoramas Of our own war. The earlier
pictures had little more yalue than that OF
their impressiveness. They were works of
art without historical value.
About two years ago Mr.. VIM. Wehner
who had witnessed the success OF some of
the panoramus placed on exhibition in
America, conceived tho idea of prefa ring
for exhibition In this country a series OF
correct paintings which should have both
artists merit and positive historical value.
With this purpose in view he visited all
the panoramas OF Importance in Europe,
and there selected Il staff of the most ccu-
petent war painters TO be found in that
country. This much accomplished, he com.
menced the erection in Milwaukee OF
great studio similar in design and slightly
largerin dimensions than the buildings re-
quired for the exhibition ofthese paintings.
The chief OF these artists were Professors
