EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures General E. O. C. Ord with his wife and daughter during the tumultuous years of 1861-65. The image, taken by renowned photographer Mathew Brady and his studio, showcases the strength and unity of this American family amidst the backdrop of the American Civil War. General Ord, a distinguished United States Army officer known for designing Fort Sam Houston, stands tall in his military uniform while holding onto his daughter's hand. His wife stands gracefully beside him, exuding elegance and resilience in her presence. The composition is beautifully framed, with the family seated on a wicker chair that adds a touch of warmth to the scene. Their expressions reflect both pride and determination as they face an uncertain future together. This photograph not only serves as a historical document but also captures the essence of familial love and support during challenging times. It reminds us that even in moments of turmoil, families can find solace in each other's embrace. Preserved within a private collection, this remarkable print from The Stapleton Collection allows us to glimpse into the lives of ordinary people who played significant roles during extraordinary times in American history. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of their sacrifices and contributions that have shaped our nation today.
