1862 Captured July Barnard Gibson Bow Gun
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a historic moment in American naval history. The image captures the bow gun of the Confederate Gunboat Teazer, which was captured on the 4th of July by the Meritanza during the year 1862. This albumen silver print, taken by Barnard & Gibson, beautifully preserves this significant event. The photograph transports us back to a time when tensions were high and battles raged on waterways. The imposing bow gun stands as a symbol of power and defiance, once belonging to a vessel that played a crucial role in Confederate operations during the Civil War. However, fate had other plans for this formidable weapon. On that fateful Independence Day, amidst patriotic celebrations across America, destiny intervened as Union forces successfully seized control of the Teazer. The capture marked an important victory for the Union Navy and dealt a heavy blow to Confederate efforts. Through this remarkable image, we are reminded of both triumph and sacrifice - two essential elements woven into our nation's complex tapestry. It serves as an enduring testament to those who fought valiantly for their cause while also highlighting unity prevailing over division. As we gaze upon this historical artifact frozen in time through delicate albumen silver printing techniques, let us reflect upon its significance and honor all those who have shaped our nation's past with their unwavering courage and determination.
