EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the solemn faces of Columbia University students Charles Francis Phillips (later known as Charles Shipman) and Owen Cattell, who were convicted of conspiracy to obstruct U.S. conscription laws during World War I in 1917. The image, taken by George Graham Bain for the Bain News Service, showcases the two young men seated together, embodying a moment in history that reflects the tensions and challenges faced during wartime.
The expressions on their faces convey a sense of determination and defiance against the backdrop of a world at war. As they sit side by side, their figures symbolize the struggles and sacrifices made by individuals caught up in larger political conflicts.
This photograph serves as a reminder of the complexities of war and its impact on everyday people, particularly those who found themselves entangled in legal battles over their beliefs. It is a snapshot frozen in time, preserving the courage and resilience shown by these young students facing adversity with unwavering resolve.
As we reflect on this historical moment captured so vividly through this image, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by those who stood up for what they believed in despite facing overwhelming odds.
