This print captures a significant moment in history during the Spanish-Cuban-American War of 1898. The image showcases the Field Hospital of the 1st Division, 7th Army Corps, located at Camp Columbia in Havana, Cuba.

The scene depicts a bustling medical facility that served as a crucial lifeline for both American troops and local civilians affected by the conflict.
