EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving captures a poignant moment in American history - the Gettysburg Reunion of 1887. On July 3rd, Confederate veterans from Pickett's division and Union veterans from the Philadelphia brigade gathered on the hallowed grounds where they once clashed in one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War. The image showcases a remarkable display of unity and reconciliation as former enemies come together as brothers-in-arms. Men, both North and South, stand side by side, their weathered faces reflecting years of hardship and sacrifice. The soldiers' uniforms bear witness to their respective allegiances, while their shared experiences bind them together. Amidst this sea of men, there are also women present - perhaps wives or daughters who have accompanied their loved ones to this historic event. Their presence serves as a reminder that war affects not only those who fight but also those left behind. Thure Thulstrup's masterful engraving brings this significant reunion to life with intricate details and expert craftsmanship. It is an evocative portrayal that encapsulates both the pain endured during battle and the healing power of time. As we gaze upon this print today, let us remember these brave individuals who fought valiantly for what they believed in and reflect on how far our nation has come since those tumultuous days. May it serve as a timeless testament to unity amidst adversity and inspire us to strive for peace even in times of conflict.
