Battle Ground of Resacca, GA, No. 1,1866 - A Glimpse into the American Civil War
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white albumen print, captured by George N. Barnard in 1866, takes us back to one of the most significant battles of the American Civil War - the Battle of Resacca in Georgia. The photograph is plate 19 from Barnard's renowned album "Photographic Views of the Sherman Campaign" which documented General William T. Sherman's military campaign through the South. In this haunting image, we witness a desolate battlefield that once bore witness to fierce clashes between Union and Confederate forces just a year prior. The scars left behind by war are evident as we survey the torn landscape and shattered trees that stand as silent witnesses to past violence. Barnard's artistry shines through his masterful composition and use of light and shadow. His attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in this historical moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon this photograph at an art institute or gallery like the Art Institute Chicago, our minds transport us back to a pivotal period in American history. This albumen silver print not only serves as a testament to Barnard's skill but also acts as a window into our nation's heritage. It reminds us of the sacrifices made during those turbulent times while encouraging reflection on how far we have come since then. As we admire this piece by George N. Barnard today, let it serve
