EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the George G. Meade Monument, located on the National Mall in Washington D.C., United States. The monument honors George Gordon Meade (1815-1872), a prominent U.S. Army officer who rose to fame during the American Civil War. Meade, who began his military career as a major and was later promoted to the rank of major general, is best known for his victory at the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863, a turning point in the war. The monument, a sculpture group designed by sculptor Thomas Ball, was unveiled in 1874, just two years after Meade's death. The statue depicts Meade in military uniform, seated on a bench, with a map spread out before him. A snapping turtle, a symbol of determination and perseverance, rests at his feet. The monument's intricate details, from the folds of Meade's uniform to the textured surface of the turtle, are beautifully rendered in this contemporary image. The monument's location on the National Mall, surrounded by lush greenery and historic landmarks, adds to its significance as a symbol of American history and military heritage. The stairs leading up to the monument invite visitors to reflect on Meade's contributions to the nation and to pay their respects to this important figure in U.S. history.
