EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the early 1910s, depicts General William Tecumseh Sherman of the United States Army. The image, titled "Entering Capitol," is a published drawing from the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. The creator of the photograph is unknown. General Sherman, born in 1820 in Lancaster, Ohio, rose to prominence during the American Civil War, where he gained fame for his military tactics and strategic victories. One of his most notable campaigns was the March to the Sea, where his troops destroyed infrastructure and resources in Georgia to weaken the Confederate economy. In this photograph, Sherman is depicted in military uniform, with a stern expression on his face and a cigar clenched between his teeth. He is dressed in the uniform of a major general, complete with a sash and stars on his shoulders. The background of the image shows the United States Capitol building in Washington D.C., indicating that the photograph was likely taken during a visit to the nation's capital. The Harris Ewing Collection, which includes this photograph, is a significant collection of glass negatives and photographic prints from the early 20th century. The collection, which is housed at the Library of Congress, provides a valuable record of American history and culture during this period. Despite the unknown creator, this photograph is an important historical artifact that captures the image of a prominent American military figure. The photograph's stark black and white contrast adds to its timeless quality, making it a compelling addition to any collection of American history or military memorabilia.
