EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to the era of the American Civil War. The image showcases Locomotive #56 of the U. S Military Railroad stationed at City Point, a crucial transportation hub during that tumultuous period. The locomotive stands proudly in the foreground, exuding power and strength with its imposing presence. Troops can be seen gathered around it, ready for deployment to various battlefronts. Their determined expressions reflect their unwavering commitment to duty amidst a nation torn apart by conflict. Captured using albumen silver print on glass negative by Andrew Joseph Russell, an acclaimed American photographer from 1861-1865, this historical artifact offers us a glimpse into a pivotal moment in our country's history. It serves as a testament to both the ingenuity of early railroad technology and the sacrifices made by brave soldiers who fought for their beliefs. This print is not just an ordinary piece of art; it symbolizes resilience and unity during one of America's darkest chapters. Its inclusion in Artokoloro's collection ensures that future generations can appreciate and learn from these significant events that shaped our nation.
