EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from 1914, Mrs. Daisy Mclaurin Stevens, President of the United Daughters of the Confederacy (U.D.C.), stands before the Confederate Monument at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia. The monument, a towering tribute to the Confederate soldiers who fought in the American Civil War, looms in the background, its intricate design and grandeur on full display. Mrs. Stevens, dressed in an elegant outfit befitting the occasion, addresses the crowd gathered for the monument's inauguration. Her attire, consisting of a high-necked blouse, a long, flowing skirt, and a hat adorned with a parasol, is reminiscent of the fashion of the early 20th century. The parasol, a popular accessory for women during this era, shields her from the sun as she delivers her speech. The United Daughters of the Confederacy, an organization founded in 1894 to preserve the history and legacy of the Confederate States of America, played a significant role in the placement of Confederate monuments and memorials throughout the United States. Mrs. Stevens, as the President of the U.D.C., was a key figure in the organization during this time. The Confederate Monument at Arlington National Cemetery, a symbol of the country's complex history, stands as a testament to the past, its intricate design and grandeur on full display. This photograph, taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, captures a moment in time, preserving the image of Mrs. Stevens and the monument for future generations to ponder and reflect upon.
