Description: A panoramic image of the parlor of the reconstructed McLean House in Appomattox Court House National Historical Park as seen in August 2011. The house was originally built by Charles Raine in 1848, and was the site of the surrender of the Army of Northern Virginiato the Union Army on April 9, 1865. Ulysses S. Grant sat at the simple wooden table on the right, while Robert E. Lee sat at the more ornate marble-topped table on the left. The furniture pictured are replicas of the originals, which are kept at the Smithsonian Museum.
