EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history - Pennsylvania soldiers exercising their right to vote during the Civil War. Taken at the Army of the James headquarters in September 1864, this image showcases the determination and commitment of these brave men. In the midst of war, these Union soldiers gather around a makeshift polling station, casting their ballots for their chosen president. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as they fulfill their civic duty while stationed in an encampment. Their dedication to democracy shines through as they participate in this crucial election. The photograph beautifully depicts the unity and camaraderie among these soldiers. Despite being far away from home and facing immense challenges on the battlefield, they prioritize engaging in the democratic process that defines America's values. The presence of a ballot box symbolizes hope for a brighter future amidst turbulent times. It serves as a reminder that even during periods of conflict, it is essential to uphold democratic principles and ensure that every voice is heard. This remarkable engraving by Alfred Rudolph Waud immortalizes not only an important historical event but also pays tribute to all those who fought for freedom during one of America's darkest chapters.
