"My greatest aim has been to advance the art of photography and to make it what I think I have, a great and truthful medium of history."- Mathew B. Brady.
In this picture we can appreciate, this soldier who was killed. Brady decide to take this picture, i believed because of his pain and the tragic sense of seeing this man killed on the soil is really discussing because this was human being. over 13,000 soldiers were killed in this war. 100 soldiers per day and more likely were because of starving, or some kind of sickness. Medical help was unable because medicine was poor and antibiotics were not helping the soldiers.
In fact, this tragical event, bring us memories about this war in which many mens were killed. People remember this day because we are more likely unaccepted in this society. Mathew Brady was the backbone of this whole happenings that make us be interested in this different type of society. We can understand this whole thing. lately, history became borinng, but after knowing this type of things we can assume that history is not boring, we all just need to learn how to understand it.
