EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Statesman No 1, Amnesty and Equal Rights to All" takes us back to the year 1871, a time of great significance in American history. The artwork, created by Matthew "Matt". Somerville Morgan, showcases an influential figure from that era - Charles Sumner. Sumner was not just a senator but also a symbol of hope and progress during the tumultuous aftermath of the American Civil War. In this image, he stands tall with his pinze nez glasses perched on his nose, exuding confidence and determination. The vibrant colors of the lithograph bring attention to the powerful message displayed on a banner held by Sumner: "Amnesty and Equal Rights to All". This phrase encapsulates his unwavering commitment to justice and equality for all Americans. The inclusion of a skull in this artwork serves as a reminder that true statesmanship is not inherited or predetermined; it is earned through experience and dedication. Sumner's journey from being born into privilege to becoming an influential politician exemplifies this notion - he was not simply born as a statesman but rather became one through his tireless efforts. As we admire this remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection, let us reflect upon its timeless message. It reminds us that regardless of our background or circumstances at birth, we all have the potential to make positive change in society if we strive for amnesty and equal rights for all.
