That foundry produced more of the Union Army’s heavy artillery and Parrott guns during the Civil War than any other. Forging the Shaft, painted ten years later, represents the same foundry’s dramatic fabrication of a propeller shaft for an ocean liner. As a veteran of the 7th Regiment New York State Militia, Weir was invested in showcasing the country’s successful transition to postwar industrialization.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/13174\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York -
