This striking bronze sculpture captures the essence of a Civil War drummer, a figure pivotal in battlefield communication during the American Civil War period. Dressed in the traditional attire of the time, the drummer stands tall and proud, showcasing the important role these individuals played for both Royalists and Parliamentarians, using coded drum messages to relay commands across the chaos of the battlefield. While drummers often carried a sword, they rarely took part in combat, with their primary duty being communication rather than fighting. Crafted from 100 percent bronze, this sculpture stands as a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry involved in its creation. The attention to detail in both the attire and the instrument itself reflects the historical accuracy of the period, honoring the legacy of those who served as drummers during the war. The design of the drums, as well as the clothing, are depicted in a way that brings both the Royalist and Parliamentarian factions to life, emphasizing their shared elements of uniform and tradition. Mounted on a polished black marble base, this elegant sculpture is signed by the artist Milo, further cementing its authenticity and value. With its historical significance and artistic detail, this piece makes an excellent addition to any collection, celebrating the vital yet often overlooked role of Civil War drummers.
