EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in history - the drum corps of the 10th Veteran Reserve Corps during the Civil War. Taken in April 1865, in Washington, D. C. , this portrait showcases a diverse group of musicians who were an integral part of the Union Army. The image portrays both African American and Caucasian soldiers standing together proudly, united by their love for music and dedication to their cause. The sepia tones add a timeless quality to the photograph, emphasizing its historical significance. Each member of the drum corps is dressed in uniform, representing their commitment to duty and service. Their musical instruments are prominently displayed - drums and saxhorns - symbolizing not only their role as musicians but also as morale boosters on the battlefield. While some faces remain unidentified, it is clear that these men formed a tight-knit band that played an important role in boosting spirits during one of America's darkest times. Their presence reminds us of the power music holds even amidst chaos and conflict. This print from Granger Art on Demand serves as a poignant reminder of those who served selflessly during this tumultuous period in American history. It pays tribute to these brave individuals who used their talents to uplift others while fighting for freedom and unity within our nation.
