| In 1987, I chanced upon a
re-enactment of the installation of General Robert E. Lee as Commander
of the Army of Northern Virginia.
Here was a world of 125 years ago
recreated. During the next twelve
years, I followed the troops,
Yankees and Rebels, and photographed with pinhole cameras at
large and small re-enactments, on or near
original Civil War sites. Images from
Civil War Redux capture both authenticity and
anachronism. While recording the
activities of historically accurate re-enactors, sometimes a reminder
of the present slipped in. |
