EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Washington, D. C. in 1865. The image showcases a U. S. Sanitary Commission storehouse and its adjoining houses located at 15th and F Street Northwest. It was captured during the month of April, just as spring began to breathe life into the city. The architectural details of these buildings are remarkable, with their grand facades and sturdy chimneys reaching towards the sky. A dirt road stretches out before them, evidence of a time when paved streets were yet to dominate urban landscapes. Despite the muddy conditions caused by recent rains, pedestrians can be seen making their way along the sidewalk while carefully avoiding puddles. A lamppost stands tall beside an entranceway adorned with shutters that hint at privacy within these homes-turned-storehouses. A lone tree adds a touch of nature amidst this mid-19th century cityscape. This photograph serves as a reminder of Washington's rich history during a pivotal moment in American history - just days after President Abraham Lincoln's assassination at Ford's Theatre on April 14th, 1865. It also highlights the important role played by organizations like the U. S. Sanitary Commission in providing aid and support during times of crisis. Preserved through time by The Granger Collection, this image offers viewers a glimpse into an era long gone but not forgotten – where architecture met necessity in creating spaces for storage and commerce within our nation's capital.
