内战开始后,尤利西斯·S·格兰特出任准将,直到他于1862年在田纳西州多内尔森堡取胜,他的任期是"无条件投降". 1864年亚伯拉罕·林肯总统将他晋升为中将,授予他指挥所有联盟军队. 格兰特创建了谢南多亚的军队,该军队保护了首都,将邦联军带出弗吉尼亚河谷. 他还支持约20万黑人服役,接近联盟军队的10%。 他宣称,黑人士兵“在邦联统治下遭受了最沉重的打击”。 挪威出生的艺术家奥莱·彼得·汉森·巴林(Ole Peter Hansen Balling)在内战初期曾短暂出任联盟士兵,但在被打伤后又回到了作画. 这幅肖像画描绘了格兰特在1863年维克斯堡围城期间被困于一条战壕中;他旁边的桌子上所绘的地图显示了密西西比河一带的地区.
