EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1900 and 1906, captures the majestic West Face of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA. The monument, located in the heart of Monument Circle, is a neoclassical masterpiece dedicated to the Hoosier soldiers and sailors who served and died in the American Civil War. The monument's west face is adorned with intricate carvings and sculptures, including an angel holding a wreath and a soldier standing at attention. The angel represents Victory, while the soldier represents the brave men who answered the call to duty. The monument is a tribute to the sacrifices made by these soldiers and sailors, and serves as a reminder of the country's rich military history. The photograph was likely taken using a dry plate or glass negative process, popular during the early 1900s. The image showcases the monument in its full glory, with the sun casting long shadows on the ground and the intricate details of the monument's carvings clearly visible. The photograph also captures the hustle and bustle of the surrounding area, with people going about their daily business and horses and carriages making their way along the street. The Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument is a National Historic Landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is a cherished part of Indianapolis' heritage and a must-see attraction for visitors to the city. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to a period when the monument was a new and awe-inspiring addition to the city's landscape.
