1897 Arizona Cave Copper Fraternal Freemason Grand Lodge Masonic Meeting Mine November Society Southwest Bisbee
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in the history of the Masonic Grand Lodge of Arizona. On November 12,1897, members of this esteemed fraternal society gathered deep within the cave mine of the Copper Queen Consolidated Mining Company at Bisbee, Arizona. The image showcases a group of men dressed in formal attire, their faces illuminated by lanterns as they engage in an important meeting. The setting itself is awe-inspiring; the rugged interior of the cave mine serves as a unique backdrop for this gathering. It symbolizes both the strength and secrecy that are synonymous with Freemasonry. As we peer into this snapshot from late 19th-century America, we catch a glimpse into an era when secret societies held great influence over social and political spheres. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its historical context but also in its artistic composition. The play between light and shadow creates an atmosphere that is both mysterious and intriguing. We can almost feel ourselves transported back to that chilly November evening, surrounded by these men who were bound together by shared values and rituals. Preserved through time, this remarkable print allows us to reflect on how societies have evolved since then while reminding us that certain traditions endure throughout generations. It stands as a testament to human connection and camaraderie amidst challenging circumstances – qualities that continue to define Freemasonry today.
