The Panorama of the Battle of Gettysburg (Restoration): On this date, major efforts to preserve the 1883 cyclorama were highlighted, ensuring the 377-foot-long canvas would survive for the future.

Pano Inspiration: These massive paintings are so heavy they have to be hung from specialized steel cables to keep the panoramic surface from sagging under its own weight.
