EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Christmas Eve" was published in Harper Weekly on January 3,1863. Created by the talented artist Thomas Nast, an American born in Germany in 1840 and passed away in Guayaquil in 1902, this relief print showcases his exceptional skill and attention to detail. Measuring approximately 13 9/16 by 20 1/2 inches (34.4 x 52 cm), this image is a poignant representation of the Christmas season during a time of great trials for the Union. The large central vignettes depict a soldier and his wife who have been separated due to war. As they spend Christmas Eve apart, their hearts are filled with longing as they think about each other and pray for their reunion. Nast's artwork beautifully captures the essence of hope amidst adversity, reminding us that even during challenging times, love and faith can sustain us. This particular piece was featured in Harper Weekly's Christmas issue of 1862, resonating with readers who were experiencing similar circumstances. The emotional depth portrayed through Nast's artistry makes this print a timeless reminder of the sacrifices made during wartime while emphasizing the power of love and unity that permeates the holiday season. It serves as both a historical artifact from an important period in American history and an enduring symbol of resilience and hope that transcends time itself.
