EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the tense atmosphere at the inauguration of Jefferson Davis as President of the Confederate States of America on February 18, 1861, marking the starting point of the Great War Between the States, later known as the American Civil War. The event took place at the Mississippi State Capitol in Jackson, Mississippi, with Davis standing resolute and determined on the balcony, surrounded by Confederate dignitaries and military officers. The Union Stars and Bars flag, the Confederate States' national flag, is raised above the capitol, symbolizing the secessionist movement's growing strength and defiance against the United States. The inauguration of Davis, a former United States Senator and Secretary of War, came after several southern states had already seceded from the Union in response to Abraham Lincoln's election as President in November 1860. The escalating tensions between the North and the South over issues such as slavery, states' rights, and tariffs had reached a breaking point. The image underscores the gravity of the situation, with the ominous clouds in the sky reflecting the looming conflict. The Confederate soldiers in the foreground, standing at attention, add to the sense of unease and anticipation. The crowd of onlookers, both supporters and opponents, further highlight the deeply divided nation. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the complex historical moment that led to the Great War Between the States, a turning point in American history that would irrevocably change the course of the nation and its people.
