MEMORIAL DAY, 1868 - A Solemn Tribute to General Frederick W. Lander
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant print captured during the first nationwide observance of Memorial Day on May 30,1868, we witness a scene of deep mourning and commemoration in Salem, Massachusetts. Mourners gather around the grave of General Frederick W. Lander, a fallen hero from the Civil War who bravely served in the Union Army. The image showcases a somber group of men and women meticulously decorating General Lander's gravestone with flowers as an act of honor and remembrance. The atmosphere is filled with reverence as they pay their respects to this courageous soldier who made the ultimate sacrifice for his country. The surrounding exterior features a delicate fence adorned with American flags fluttering gently in the midday breeze. This symbolic display serves as a reminder that these brave souls fought for unity and freedom under one flag. Captured by J. Warren Thyng and transformed into an engraving by talented contemporary American artists, this artwork encapsulates both sorrow and pride felt across the nation during Decoration Day (now known as Memorial Day). It stands as a powerful testament to our collective duty to remember those who gave their lives in service to our great nation. This print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to step back in time and bear witness to this solemn moment when America came together to honor its fallen heroes like General Frederick W. Lander – forever etching their names into history
