EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures the devastating scene of the Burning of the Evans-Gordon train at Wounded Knee Creek in 1875, near the north boundary of Nebraska. The artist, M.B. Brubacher, skillfully depicts the chaos and destruction that unfolded 325 miles west of Sioux City. The burning train serves as a stark reminder of the violent clashes between Native Americans and settlers during this tumultuous period in American history. The smoke billowing from the flames symbolizes not only physical destruction but also deep-rooted tensions and conflicts. The wounded limb visible in the foreground highlights the human cost of these brutal encounters, as individuals on both sides suffered injuries and wounds that would leave lasting scars. The city skyline in the distance serves as a haunting backdrop to this tragic event, emphasizing how violence and conflict can reach even remote locations like Wounded Knee Creek. Through his artistry, Brubacher brings to life a moment frozen in time, allowing us to reflect on the complexities of American history and its impact on indigenous communities. This print is a poignant reminder of our shared past and serves as a call to remember those who were affected by events like the Burning of the Evans-Gordon train.
