BARBARA FRIETSCHIE (1766-1862) - A Symbol of Unyielding Patriotism
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the indomitable spirit of Barbara Frietschie, an American patriot whose unwavering loyalty to her country during the Civil War remains etched in history. In this wood engraving from the 19th century, we witness Mrs. Frietschie fearlessly waving the Union flag high above General Stonewall Jackson and his Confederate troops as they march through Frederick, Maryland in 1862. Standing at her window with determination etched on her face, Barbara Frietschie becomes a symbol of defiance against division and oppression. Her act of raising "Old Glory" amidst a procession of Confederate soldiers showcases her unshakable belief in unity and freedom for all Americans. The image portrays not only bravery but also serves as a reminder that patriotism knows no bounds or age limits. Despite being an elderly woman, Mrs. Frietschie's actions speak volumes about the power each individual possesses to make a difference. As she leans out from her window atop a horseman passing by, one cannot help but be moved by this extraordinary display of courage and resilience. This iconic moment encapsulates both the turmoil and hope that defined America during those tumultuous times. Barbara Frietschie's legacy endures as an inspiration for generations to come - reminding us that even in our darkest hours, there are individuals who will rise above adversity to fight for what they believe
