EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Christmas Eve 1862 Harper Weekly January 3,1863" by Artokoloro from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to a significant moment during the American Civil War. The wood engraving, created by Thomas Nast, an American artist born in Germany, showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image published in the 1862 Christmas issue of Harper's Weekly portrays a scene filled with emotions and symbolism. In this artwork, we witness the hardships faced by soldiers and their families during this tumultuous period. The large central vignettes depict a soldier and his wife who have been separated due to war. Their expressions reveal their longing for each other as they spend Christmas Eve apart. As we observe these characters lost in thought and prayer, it becomes evident that hope is still alive within them. Despite the trials they face on both sides of the conflict, there is an underlying belief that better days will come. This print serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those involved in the Union cause during this critical point in history. It captures not only their physical separation but also highlights their unwavering determination to reunite and restore peace. Artokoloro has beautifully preserved this historical piece through meticulous reproduction techniques, allowing us to appreciate Nast's remarkable craftsmanship even today.
