EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Statue of Captain John Parker, located on Battle Green in Lexington, Massachusetts, USA, around 1902. The statue is a tribute to the commander of the Lexington Militia during the first engagement of the American Revolutionary War, the Battle of Lexington on April 19, 1775. Parker, a farmer by profession, is depicted in the statue holding a rifle and giving orders to his men. The statue was created by Henry Hudson Kitson and was commissioned by the Detroit Publishing Company, published by Edwin H. Husher. The image is a silver gelatin glass transparency, measuring 8 x 10 inches, and is part of the collections of the Library of Congress. The statue stands as a symbol of the courage and determination of the early American settlers in the face of colonialism and the impending revolution. The image captures the historical significance of the event and the heritage art of the early 20th century.
