Having spent his life and his fortune documenting the American Civil War, pioneering
photographer Mathew Brady is repeatedly visited by a woman of the future who asks him to
photograph the horrors of the wars she knows, starting with Hiroshima.
“I’m sorry, ma’am,” Brady said. He didn’t turn to see which portraits she had
indicated. “I didn’t mean to offend you. These portraits show what war really is, and
I think it’s something we need to remember lest we try it again.”
