What “The Cornfield” represents

The title comes from the famous fighting at the Battle of Antietam, specifically the brutal combat in Miller’s Cornfield.

One of the bloodiest phases of the battle
Union and Confederate troops clashed at close range
Control of the cornfield changed hands multiple times in a single day

Barnum’s sculpture captures that intensity in a tight, chaotic battlefield scene.
