  • The Magazine of the Victorian Society in America Volume 40 Number 1 Editorial
    Nineteenth Ce ntury The Magazine of the Victorian Society in America Volume 40 Number 1 Editorial The Artist’s Shadow The Winter Show at the Park Avenue Armory in New York City is always a feast for the eyes. Dazzling works of art, decorative arts, and sculpture appear that we might never see again. During a tour of this pop-up museum in January I paused at the booth of the Alexander Gallery where a painting caught my eye. It was an 1812 portrait of two endearing native-New Yorkers Schuyler Ogden and his sister, the grand-nephew and grand-niece of General Stephen Van Rensselaer. I am always sure that exhibitors at such shows can distinguish the buyers from the voyeurs in a few seconds but that did not prevent the gallery owner from engaging with me in a lively conversation about Fresh Raspberries . It was clear he had considerable affection for the piece. Were I a buyer, I would have very happily bought this little confection then and there. The boy, with his plate of fresh picked berries, reminds me of myself at that very age. These are not something purchased at a market. These are berries he and his sister have freshly picked just as they were when my sisters and I used to bring bowls of raspberries back to our grandmother from her berry patch, which she would then make into jam. I have no doubt Master Ogden and his beribboned sister are on their way to present their harvest to welcoming hands. As I walked away, I turned one last time to bid them adieu and that is when I saw its painter, George Harvey.

Dear Parishioners, “O God, be merciful to me a sinner.” The lament of the tax collector in this weekend’s Gospel is one we might all ponder. Awareness of our need for mercy and forgiveness is crucial in any relationship, especially with the Lord. We all have the challenge of seeking a deeper insight into the parts of our lives in which sin and resentment broods. The only way we can move to a better place is to name it and take the actions that can bring us to a better place. Fidelity to Christ implies personal integrity and dedication to living gospel values. Being held accountable is a challenge for a family and a faith community. There are certain people in our lives who bring out the best in us. There are some voices in our lives that can compel us to change or to be an agent of mercy. Jerry Boland, Pastor Last weekend was the women’s Christ Renews His Parish retreat at the Bellarmine Retreat House.

  • The Mystery of the Alabama Confederate Monument
    Devotion, Deception, and the Ladies Memorial Association, 1865-1898: The Mystery of the Alabama Confederate Monument michael panhorst he eighty-eight-foot tall Alabama Confederate Monument T(Figure 1) on Montgomery’s Capitol Hill stands in commemora- tion of the service and sacrifice of 122,000 Alabamians who fought for the Confederacy during the Civil War. Fund-raising for the $47,000 monument began in 1865 and was largely the work of white women, as was typical of Civil War memorial patronage in the South. The Ladies Memorial Association (LMA) raised most of the money through lengthy efforts involving bazaars and appeals to private do- nors and the state government. Due to pressing post-war needs for proper burial of many Confederate bodies lying in shallow battlefield graves, and the needs of widows, orphans, and Confederate veterans during Reconstruction, plus an economy slow to recover from the war, the cornerstone was not laid until 1886. More than 5,000 people witnessed Jefferson Davis perform that ceremony with full Masonic rites near the spot where he had taken the oath of office as the only President of the Confederacy. Another twelve years passed before the monument designed by New York sculptor Alexander Doyle (1857-1922) was completed with his handsome bronze finial figure of Patriotism and bronze relief sculpture of a generic battle scene en- circling the column. Granite statuary by Frederick Barnicoat (1857- 1942) of Quincy, Massachusetts, representing the Infantry, Artillery, Cavalry, and Navy was added by the patrons to complete Doyle’s design. The elaborate dedication on December 7, 1898 (near the michael panhorst is Curator of Art at the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts.
