EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Vision of Honor and Remembrance: The Proposed Seventh Regiment Memorial in Central Park, New York City 2.. This rendering offers a glimpse into the rich history of New York City and the Seventh Regiment Memorial, which was originally proposed to be situated in Central Park. Dated before 1874, this architectural drawing showcases the intricate design of the memorial, featuring John Quincy Adams Ward's iconic sculpture, "The Angel of Death Penning the Last Word Upon Her Scroll." The Seventh Regiment, also known as the "Silver Grays," was a distinguished unit in the New York Militia, formed in 1851. The regiment saw action during the American Civil War, and this memorial was intended to honor the fallen soldiers from the Seventh Regiment who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. The design of the memorial was inspired by the Greek temple, symbolizing the classical ideals of democracy and freedom. The central figure of the sculpture, "The Angel of Death," is depicted as a winged woman, recording the names of the deceased soldiers in a book. The memorial's architectural elements, including the Doric columns and the intricate frieze, reflect the grandeur and solemnity of the occasion. The proposed setting for the memorial in Central Park would have placed it in the heart of the city, making it a significant landmark and a reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men of the Seventh Regiment. Although the memorial was ultimately relocated to its current site on Fifth Avenue and 53rd Street, this rendering offers a fascinating look into the original vision for this enduring tribute to New York's military heritage.
