1823 1862 1894 Charles Deforest Fredricks Union Soldier Wearing
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this albumen silver print from 1862, we are transported back to a defining moment in American history. The image showcases a Union soldier, resolute and steadfast, donning a heavy coat that serves as both protection against the harsh elements and a symbol of his unwavering commitment to the cause. Standing tall amidst an uncertain landscape, he embodies the courage and sacrifice exhibited by countless soldiers during the Civil War. The photograph is attributed to Charles DeForest Fredricks, an esteemed American photographer whose lens captured not only the physicality but also the spirit of those who fought for their beliefs. Through his artistry, Fredricks immortalizes this anonymous soldier's determination and resilience. The composition exudes authenticity; every crease on the soldier's coat tells a story of hardship endured on battlefields far from home. His gaze is focused yet contemplative, perhaps reflecting upon loved ones left behind or contemplating what lies ahead. This remarkable piece from Liszt Collection allows us to connect with our nation's past in a profound way. It reminds us of those who selflessly fought for unity and freedom during one of America's most challenging periods. As we admire this timeless photograph, let us honor all those who have served their country with valor and remember that their sacrifices continue to shape our present-day society.
