EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting print titled "Burial Party, Cold Harbor, Virginia" captures a somber moment in American history. Taken by John Reekie, an active photographer during the 1860s, and printed by Alexander Gardner, this albumen silver print showcases the aftermath of a tragic event. The image transports us to Washington, District of Columbia in April 1865. The negative was captured during one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War - Cold Harbor in Virginia. As we gaze at this photograph, we witness a burial party paying their respects to fallen soldiers. The composition is both poignant and powerful. The stark contrast between light and shadow emphasizes the solemnity of the scene. Each figure stands tall yet burdened with grief as they lay their comrades to rest on hallowed ground. Reekie's attention to detail allows us to see every expression etched on these brave men's faces; sorrow mixed with determination reflects their unwavering commitment to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. Printed in 1866 using albumen silver techniques, this historical artifact serves as a reminder that war leaves scars not only on battlefields but also on hearts and minds. It invites us to reflect upon the human cost of conflict and appreciate those who have fought for freedom throughout history. As we contemplate this image from Liszt Collection, let it serve as a testament to our shared humanity and an enduring tribute to all those who have laid down their lives in service of something greater than
