EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Procession of Troops and Civilians on Way to Dedication of Soldiers National Cemetery, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, November 19,1863" takes us back to a significant moment in American history. Formerly attributed to the renowned photographer Mathew B. Brady but now credited to Isaac G. Tyson and Charles J. Tyson, this 19th-century albumen silver print captures the essence of a nation united in grief. The image showcases a solemn procession winding its way through the landscape towards Gettysburg National Cemetery. In this poignant scene from the aftermath of the Battle of Gettysburg during the American Civil War, soldiers and civilians alike come together to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. The vast crowd reflects both sorrow and resilience as they pay homage to fallen heroes amidst rows upon rows of gravestones. The composition skillfully balances elements of life and death: men clad in military uniforms march alongside women dressed in mourning attire while maintaining an air of determination. Through this photograph's monochromatic palette and impeccable detail captured by Brady or perhaps Tyson himself, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment that forever shaped America's identity. Preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of our national heritage collection, it serves as a powerful reminder not only of our shared history but also our duty never to forget those who fought for freedom on that hallowed ground.
