EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a General McClellan style soldiers ID tag, belonging to Private Simon Hersey of the 4th Rhode Island Volunteer Infantry during the American Civil War. The metal tag, beautifully captured by eDon Troiani's lens, offers a glimpse into the personal history and identity of this brave Union soldier. The American Civil War was a pivotal event in United States history, lasting from 1861 to 1865. It pitted the Union against secessionist states known as the Confederate States of America. Ultimately, the Union emerged victorious after enduring unimaginable bloodshed. In this image, we see both sides of Private Simon Hersey's ID tag. On one side is his profile portrait and detailed information such as his name and company affiliation. On the other side lies an emblematic representation of his allegiance to the Union Army. This photograph not only serves as a cultural artifact but also provides insight into camp life during this tumultuous period in American history. It highlights insignia worn by soldiers like Private Hersey and reminds us of their sacrifice for their country. As we gaze upon this image, let us remember those who fought valiantly on both sides of this conflict and honor their memory. This print allows us to connect with our past and appreciate how far we have come since that time when our nation was divided by war between brothers.
