The image displays a framed antique print titled "Billy Wilson's Zouaves at Tammany Hall, Taking the Oath of Fidelity to the Flag, April 24, 1861".
This historical illustration captures a significant moment during the early days of the American Civil War:
Subject: It depicts Colonel William Wilson leading his newly recruited "Union Battalion of Zouaves," also known as "Billy Wilson's Zouaves," in a formal muster at Tammany Hall in New York City on April 24, 1861. Oath of Fidelity: The central action shows the Zouaves taking an oath of allegiance to the Union flag, swearing to "support the flag and never to flinch from its path through blood or death".
Historical Context: Colonel Wilson recruited these approximately 1,200 men primarily from the "rowdy and criminal classes" of New York City, and this event marked their formal induction and pledge to the Union cause.
Source: The print is an authentic antique woodblock print
