The Fort Sumter Poem Women's Tee | Anachronism Series | Chinese Art

A Poetic Statement, A Flattering Fit.

This women's t-shirt combines a profound piece of conceptual art with a comfortable and stylish fit. The design is a 33-character Classical Chinese poem about the American Civil War, with each character arranged to match the 33-star canton of the Fort Sumter flag. The poem is a powerful, condensed statement of Union and Abolitionist ideals. This soft, contoured tee is a perfect way to wear a beautiful and thought-provoking piece of cross-cultural art.

Below is a poetic rendering of the poem's meaning, with each line corresponding to a column in the poem (from right to left):

Traitors gnawed at the nation's root,
Their only sentence: death.
Let there be no North or South,
But long live the Republic's liberty!
Strike down the masters, and free the slaves.
This is a nation with no king.
Wide Awakes ('an awakened people') can never be broken.
