EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of John Cabell Breckinridge, a prominent figure in American history. Serving as both a Confederate general and the 14th Vice-President of the United States, Breckinridge's life was filled with political ambition and military service. Before the Civil War erupted, Breckinridge held the distinction of being the youngest person to ever hold the office of Vice-President. However, his bid for presidency in 1860 proved unsuccessful. As war broke out, he played an active role on both western and eastern fronts before assuming the position of Confederate Secretary of War in 1865. Fearing potential charges of treason, Breckinridge sought exile but eventually returned to his homeland after receiving amnesty in 1869. This portrait showcases him donning a military uniform with a distinguished moustache adorning his face – symbols that reflect his dedication to serving his country. The monochrome engraving from "The War with the South: A History of Late Rebellion" by Robert Tomes and Benjamin G Smith provides us with an intimate glimpse into this influential man's life during one of America's darkest periods. It serves as a reminder not only of Breckinridge's significant contributions but also highlights how individuals can be shaped by their circumstances and choices during times of conflict.
