EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph by Grant Hamilton, titled "ATLANTA EXPOSITION, 1895. From Darkness to Light (The New South)", takes us back to a significant moment in American history. Created in 1895, it commemorates the Atlanta Exposition and serves as an allegorical representation of the transformation of the South. In this thought-provoking image, Hamilton skillfully portrays the journey from darkness to light that the region experienced during this time period. The lithograph depicts a cityscape with tall buildings rising towards a bright sky, symbolizing progress and enlightenment. It is evident that political acts played a crucial role in shaping this new era for the South. Hamilton's use of cartoon-like figures adds depth and character to his artwork. These animated characters represent different aspects of society coming together for change - their unity reflecting hope for a brighter future. The Atlanta Exposition was an important event that aimed to showcase advancements made by Southern states since the Civil War. This lithograph beautifully captures its significance and serves as a reminder of how far we have come as a nation. As we gaze upon this historical print, we are reminded not only of our past but also inspired by how societies can evolve and grow stronger over time. "From Darkness to Light" encapsulates both the struggles faced by Americans during those times and their unwavering determination to overcome them – ultimately leading towards progress and prosperity in what became known as The New South.
