Impressive group portrait of aging Union veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic (G.A.R.) taken by Hugo Weitz of San Francisco. The large formation of men, many wearing G.A.R. medals and sashes, poses outdoors on a windswept hill, with the American flag prominently held at left. Some of the veterans stand with canes and one at left holds a banner. Women and younger figures appear in the background. The photographer’s embossed studio credit appears on the lower mount, “Hugo Weitz, Photo., 125 Chattanooga St., S.F.”
A rare and evocative image of Civil War memory in the West, likely made on a patriotic national holiday ca 1900. 7 1/4 X 9 1/2 image on 10 X 12 mount.
