EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the crew of the U. S. Monitor Saugus during the American Civil War. Taken by an unknown photographer, possibly Mathew B. Brady, this 19th-century albumen silver print showcases a group of men on board the ironclad warship. The image transports us back in time to a pivotal moment in history when naval warfare played a crucial role in shaping the destiny of a nation. The officers and sailors stand proudly on deck, their faces etched with determination and resolve. The composition beautifully highlights not only the individuals but also the imposing presence of the ship itself against a backdrop of river waters. It serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and technological advancements during that era. As we gaze upon these brave men, we are reminded of their unwavering commitment to their country and their duty as members of the United States Navy. Their portraits offer us glimpses into their lives, capturing moments frozen in time forever. This remarkable photograph is now part of The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, preserving it for future generations to appreciate our rich heritage and honor those who fought valiantly for freedom aboard ships like USS Saugus.
