High Water Mark, Gettysburg
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative and nostalgic 19th-century photographic print that transports us back in time to the historic battlefield of Gettysburg. This image, estimated to date from around 1903, is a testament to the rich history and enduring significance of this hallowed ground. The photochrom print, a popular method of colorizing photographs during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, showcases the battlefield as it appeared during a period of high water. The Marney Creek, a tributary that flows through the battlefield, is depicted as a tranquil, meandering body of water, reflecting the vibrant autumnal colors of the surrounding foliage. In the foreground, the high water mark is clearly visible, etched into the banks of the creek. This mark serves as a poignant reminder of the intense and brutal battle that took place here on July 3, 1863, during the American Civil War. The Union Army, led by General George G. Meade, successfully repelled an attack by the Confederate Army, under the command of General Robert E. Lee, preventing a potential Confederate victory. The nostalgic and picturesque scene is further enhanced by the inclusion of a horse-drawn carriage in the distance, adding a sense of period authenticity to the image. The muted, yet rich colors of the print, combined with the intricate details of the landscape, create a captivating and immersive experience for the viewer. "High Water Mark, Gettysburg" is not only a beautiful and nostalgic piece of historical art, but also a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during one of the most pivotal moments in American history. This photographic print invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the enduring legacy of the Battle of Gettysburg.
