EDITORS COMMENTS
D. C. : FORDs THEATER, 1865. A haunting glimpse into a somber moment in American history. This print captures the exterior of Ford's Theater in Washington, D. C. , just days after the tragic assassination of President Abraham Lincoln in April 1865. The theater stands draped with crepe, symbolizing mourning and grief that engulfed the nation at that time. The atmosphere is heavy with sorrow as armed guards stand vigilantly outside, protecting this significant site from any potential threat. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the profound impact Lincoln's death had on the country. It transports us back to an era when America was grappling with its own identity amidst civil unrest and division. The image showcases not only a historical building but also reflects the resilience and strength of a nation determined to heal and move forward despite immense tragedy. It encapsulates both the fragility and fortitude of America during this mid-19th century period. Preserved by The Granger Collection, this remarkable piece offers viewers an opportunity to connect with our past, honoring those who fought for unity and justice during one of America's most challenging times.
