EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in 1888, we are transported back to Fort Stanton, New Mexico. The image captures a serene moment within the walls of the fort as a U. S. military sergeant engrosses himself in a book while seated on a rocking chair. Behind him, a woman reclines gracefully on a sofa, her presence adding an air of tranquility to the scene. Photographed by Sgt. Charles Harvey, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into late 19th-century America and its military life. The details within the frame tell their own story - from the meticulously placed fur rug beneath their feet to the uniform adorning the sergeant's figure. The interior setting exudes quietude with its simple yet elegant furnishings that complement each other harmoniously. It is as if time has momentarily stood still within these walls, allowing for introspection and relaxation amidst duty and responsibility. This photograph from Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection serves as both an artistic piece and historical documentation of Southwest America during this period. Its authenticity transports us back in time, enabling us to appreciate not only the beauty captured but also gain insight into life at Fort Stanton over a century ago.
