Map Description
Old map of Chancellorsville, Fredericksburg, Fredericksburg Region, United States, Virginia.
Area depicted includes the Rappahannock River to the northeast, Taylor Hill to the northwest and Deep Run to the south. The Fredericksburg & Potomac Railroad is also indicated.
As part of Gen. Hooker's plan to drive the Confederate Army back toward Richmond, Gen. Sedgwick was to undertake a diversionary attack across the Rappahannock River toward the Confederate entrenchments above Fredericksburg. On May 3rd, having started late and after meeting tougher opposition than anticipated, he did finally succeed in overrunning Marye's Heights and moved to reinforce Hooper's troops camped outside Chancellorsville in an area known as the Wilderness.
While sometimes referred to as the Second Battle of Fredericksburg, this action was actually part of the larger Battle of Chancellorsville.
Created by Robert Knox Sneden in 1863.

Map Sizing Information
- For the best legibility, order your map in the original size or larger. Most maps have intricate detail and small text that is best appreciated when the print size hasn't been reduced.
- Sizes labeled "Fits a Standard Frame" will drop right into any frame that you purchase in that size. The sizes that we offer are commonly available online and at most retail stores.
- Our standard sizes are recommendations based on the aspect ratio of the original map, but still may require some added "white space" in one dimension to fit.
- Non-standard sizes will require custom framing, and we suggest taking your print to the frame shop of your choice after you receive it for the best results.
- Custom sizes are available, simply contact us for a quote.
Below is an approximation of the scale of a few standard sizes, and how they might appear in your space.
