EDITORS COMMENTS
This photochrom print, dating back to the early 1900s, showcases The Surrender Monument located in Vicksburg, Mississippi, United States. The monument stands as a poignant reminder of the pivotal moment in American history, marking the end of the Siege of Vicksburg during the American Civil War. The image, created through a photomechanical process, captures the monument in stunning detail, with its intricate design and the lush green landscape surrounding it. The Surrender Monument, also known as the "Vicksburg Monument," was designed by New Orleans sculptor George Washington Saunders and dedicated on May 19, 1894. The monument commemorates the unconditional surrender of the Confederate forces under General John C. Pemberton to Union General Ulysses S. Grant on July 4, 1863. The monument's inscription reads, "Our Victory." This evocative image, taken from an unknown vantage point, invites us to reflect on the heritage and history of the United States, transporting us back in time to a pivotal moment in the country's past.
