EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in American history as Jefferson Davis and his staff are ferried across the Pe-Dee river in North Carolina after the fall of the Southern Confederacy. The image is a stark reminder of the events that unfolded during the Civil War, with Davis and his entourage making their escape while others are forced to swim their horses across.
The historical significance of this photograph cannot be understated, showcasing both the desperation and determination of those involved in one of the most tumultuous periods in our nation's past. As Davis looks out stoically from his perch on board, one can only imagine the weight of responsibility he carried as leader of the Confederate States.
The contrast between those who were fortunate enough to have transportation across the river and those who had no choice but to rely on their own strength and that of their loyal steeds is striking. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by so many during this turbulent time.
Mary Evans Picture Library has once again provided us with a window into history through this powerful image, allowing us to reflect on the complexities and consequences of war. This print is not just a piece of art, but a testament to resilience, leadership, and survival in times of great upheaval.
