EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "CIVIL WAR: LEISURE, 1862" we are transported back to a moment of respite amidst the chaos of war. The image captures Prince Robert, Duke of Chartres on the left, engaging in a friendly game of dominos with his comrades Prince Philippe, Count of Paris and Prince Francois of Joinville at Camp Winfield Scott near Yorktown, Virginia. The scene exudes an air of camaraderie as these noble men from Europe find solace in each other's company during their time serving in the Union Army. Dressed in their distinguished uniforms, they blend seamlessly with their American counterparts who have volunteered for duty. As they gather around a simple table outdoors, surrounded by the lush landscape and under the watchful eye of James F. Gibson's lens, it is evident that even amidst war there is still room for moments of leisure and connection. This glimpse into daily life during the Civil War offers a poignant reminder that humanity persists even in times marked by conflict. The photograph not only showcases these royal figures but also provides insight into the diverse makeup of those fighting on behalf of the Union cause. It serves as a testament to unity across borders and highlights how individuals from different backgrounds can come together through shared experiences such as playing games like dominos. This remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand captures both historical significance and human connection within its frame – reminding us that even amid turmoil, bonds can be formed over something as simple as a game
