EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures the title page of the iconic "Battle Hymn of the Republic" written by Julia Ward Howe in 1862. The print, created by American School in the 19th century, is housed at the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, Massachusetts. The Battle Hymn of the Republic became a patriotic anthem during the American Civil War, resonating deeply with both soldiers and civilians alike. Originally composed as a campfire spiritual by South Carolinian William Steffe in 1853, it was transformed into a powerful marching song with new lyrics penned by Julia Ward Howe. The image depicts an engraving featuring bold text that proudly declares its title. It serves as a visual representation of this rousing tune that stirred hearts across North America during one of its most tumultuous periods. As we gaze upon this historic artifact, we are reminded of the united spirit that swept through America during those trying times. The words "Glory Hallelujah" stand out prominently on this title page, symbolizing hope and triumph amidst adversity. Julia Ward Howe's contribution to American history cannot be overstated. Her eloquent verses captured not only her own passion for justice but also embodied the collective yearning for freedom and equality within United States society. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the artistic beauty but also the historical significance behind this cherished piece of Americana.
