Circular lithographed bird's-eye view of the U.S. Civil War Battle of Shiloh, Tennessee on April 6 and 7, 1862. The fine, detailed view is based on a large painted panorama of the battle designed by French panorama artist Theophile Francois Henri Poilpot (1848-1915). The panorama was commissioned by A. T. Andreas and displayed in Chicago in 1885.

From the Manual of the Panorama of the Battle of Shiloh published in 1885 by A.T. Andreas, 602 Opera House. Topographic survey for the panorama was conducted by M.B. Hewson and F.J.
