Ca. 1900. This monument was dedicated in August 1886 and is located on North Slocum Ave. Executed in grey/green water color, signed "M.L.G." in lower left corner, measuring 12 x 17". Single matted in white, in white-painted, glassed wooden frame, measuring 17.5 x26.5". Monument inscription reads as follows: "The regiment was placed in reserve in rear of this position at 9:30 A.M. of the 3d. and subsequently five companies advanced into the breast-works. During the heavy cannonade it moved with the brigade to support the left center. Loss in the action. Two officers and twenty nine enlisted men killed and wounded. Birney's Zouaves. First Brigade, Thrid Division, Sixth Corps." The wooden backed frame exhibits light wear & soiling, and the glass is flecked with the tiny wavy bubbles characteristic of turn of the century glass. The painting is nothing less than stunning, a superb piece of Gettysburg monument art.
