EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history when the iconic Capitol building in Washington DC was still unfinished, before the addition of its grand dome. The year is 1862, and the image provides a rare glimpse into the early stages of construction on this symbol of American democracy.
The photograph showcases the intricate architectural details of the Capitol's facade, highlighting its neoclassical design and imposing presence. The lack of a dome emphasizes the scale and magnitude of this monumental structure, which would later become one of the most recognizable landmarks in Washington DC.
As we gaze upon this historical photograph, we are transported back in time to an era when America was embroiled in civil war and undergoing significant political upheaval. The unfinished state of the Capitol serves as a poignant reminder of how far our nation has come since those tumultuous days.
Mary Evans Picture Library has expertly preserved this piece of American history through their meticulous curation and preservation efforts. Their dedication to showcasing important moments from our past allows us to appreciate and learn from these valuable artifacts for generations to come. This print is not just a visual representation but also a tangible link to our shared heritage as Americans.
