EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant moment in American history - Baltimore, Maryland, 1861. The image depicts the aftermath of a riot against Union troops at the beginning of the Civil War on May 1st. Standing tall amidst the chaos is the Custom House, its grandeur contrasting with the turmoil that surrounds it. In this contemporary American wood engraving, we witness a powerful symbol of unity and resilience as the Stars and Stripes are raised above the Custom House. This act serves as an assertion of loyalty to the Union during a time when tensions were high between North and South. The scene captures not only buildings but also people who fill the streets. Their expressions range from curiosity to concern, reflecting their uncertainty about what lies ahead for their city and country. It is in these moments that we see ordinary citizens thrust into extraordinary circumstances. As we gaze upon this historic image, we cannot help but be reminded of how deeply divided our nation once was. Yet through struggle and sacrifice, America emerged stronger than ever before. This photograph encapsulates both hope for reconciliation and determination to preserve what it means to be American. Let this visual artifact serve as a reminder that even in times of great upheaval, there are symbols like Old Glory that unite us all under one flag - reminding us that together we can overcome any challenge thrown our way.
