EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history during the Civil War. Titled "CIVIL WAR: MILITARY BRIDGE" it showcases the remarkable engineering feat accomplished by the 15th New York Volunteers under the leadership of Colonel John McLeod Murphy. The image transports us to Chickahominy River, Virginia, where this awe-inspiring bridge was constructed. The wooden structure spans across the river's width, connecting both shores and allowing Union forces to cross safely. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity and determination amidst one of America's bloodiest conflicts. Photographed by James F. Gibson in 1862, this stereograph provides an authentic glimpse into that era. The sepia tones evoke a sense of nostalgia while highlighting every detail of this impressive construction project. As we gaze upon this historic scene, we can almost hear the sounds of soldiers marching and feel their anticipation as they prepare to cross over into enemy territory. This photograph serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those brave men who fought for their beliefs on both sides of the conflict. Granger Art on Demand presents us with another invaluable piece from our past through this photo print, preserving an important chapter in American history for generations to come.
