17th 1864 1870s Adams Right Hand Ward Wounded

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of sacrifice and resilience during a tumultuous period in American history. The print showcases the right hand of Saml Hagle, wounded at Petersburg on June 17th, 1864. The photographer, H. D. Ward, an active artist from North Adams, Massachusetts in the 1860s to 1870s, skillfully immortalizes this poignant moment through the use of albumen silver print. The image evokes a sense of both admiration and sorrow as we contemplate the hardships endured by soldiers like Saml Hagle during the Civil War. His injured hand serves as a powerful symbol of bravery and determination amidst unimaginable adversity. Ward's composition is strikingly intimate; every detail is meticulously captured - from the texture of Hagle's weathered skin to his tightly clenched fist that bears witness to his unwavering spirit. The monochrome palette adds depth and intensity to this haunting portrayal. As we gaze upon this historic artifact from our past, let us remember those who fought valiantly for their beliefs and honor their sacrifices. This photograph reminds us that even in times of great turmoil, humanity can find strength within itself to endure and overcome challenges.
