EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Company C, 3rd US Infantry near Fort Meade, So Dak, 1890," was captured by renowned photographer John C.H. Grabill. The image depicts a group of uniformed military men, both standing and seated, in front of a wooded hillside. The soldiers of Company C, 3rd US Infantry, are dressed in their full military regalia, without their rifles, creating an unusual yet intriguing scene. The photograph was taken near Fort Meade, South Dakota, during the late 1890s. This period marked the end of the American Frontier and the expansion of the United States into the western territories. The military presence in the region was essential for enforcing law and order, protecting settlers, and ensuring the peaceful integration of Native American communities. The soldiers in the photograph appear to be engaged in a meeting or gathering, their expressions varying from focused and attentive to relaxed and contemplative. The hillside in the background adds a sense of depth and natural beauty to the scene, highlighting the contrast between the civilized world of the military camp and the untamed wilderness of the frontier. John C.H. Grabill was a prolific photographer who documented the people, places, and events of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His work, including this photograph, is an invaluable contribution to the historical record of American history and the evolution of military fashion and uniform design. The Library of Congress holds this and many other notable works by Grabill, making them accessible for research, education, and appreciation by scholars, historians, and the general public.
