EDITORS COMMENTS
CIVIL WAR: CROSSING, 1862. This print captures a pivotal moment in American history as a Federal Battery crosses the shallow waters of the Rappahannock River on the day of battle in Cedar Mountain, Virginia. Taken by renowned photographer Timothy O'Sullivan in August 1862, this image showcases the determination and bravery of Union soldiers during one of the most tumultuous periods in our nation's past. In this photograph, we see a covered wagon leading the way across the river while horses and soldiers follow closely behind. The water is calm but treacherous, symbolizing both the physical obstacles faced by these troops and the turbulent times they lived in. The scene is set against a picturesque backdrop of lush greenery and rolling hills that highlight Virginia's natural beauty despite being marred by war. O'Sullivan's expert composition allows us to feel as if we are right there with these courageous men, witnessing their struggle firsthand. Their resolute expressions speak volumes about their dedication to preserving our union and fighting for what they believed was right. This stunning stereograph serves as a powerful reminder of our country's past and honors those who sacrificed so much during this dark chapter in American history. It stands as a testament to humanity's resilience even amidst chaos and conflict.
