EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, taken in May 1864 by Alexander Gardner, offers a poignant glimpse into the tumultuous era of the American Civil War. The image showcases Jericho Mills on the North Anna River in Virginia, a strategic location that witnessed significant military action during this historic conflict. The focal point of this print is an impressive pontoon bridge spanning across the river, serving as a vital lifeline for troops and supplies. Its construction symbolizes both innovation and necessity amidst the chaos of war. Surrounding it is an idyllic landscape with a charming mill nestled against the backdrop of lush greenery. Gardner's skilled composition captures not only the physicality of this scene but also conveys its emotional weight. The tranquil setting belies the harsh reality faced by soldiers who fought valiantly for their respective causes on these very grounds. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Gardner's Photographic Sketch Book of the Civil War, Volume 2, Plate 65, we are transported back to a time when our nation was divided. It serves as a somber reminder of sacrifice and resilience while honoring those who lived through such challenging times.
