EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a poignant moment in American history as Union and Confederate veterans, members of the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) and their Confederate counterparts, gather for a reunion at the hallowed grounds of Gettysburg Battlefield in 1913. The scene is set with soldiers and their families encamped under tents, surrounded by horses, mules, and other animals, transporting them back to a time when these men were once bitter enemies on the battlefield. The Grand Army of the Republic, an organization founded in 1866, was established to support and promote the welfare of Union Civil War veterans. This reunion, held 50 years after the pivotal Battle of Gettysburg, brought together veterans from both sides to pay their respects and honor the sacrifices made during the American Civil War. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a renowned photographic studio based in Washington D.C. The studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was known for its high-quality glass negatives and its extensive collection of historical images. This particular photograph, a testament to the healing power of time and the indomitable human spirit, is a powerful reminder of the shared history and unity that eventually emerged from the tumultuous period of the Civil War.
