EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dignified presence of James Abram Garfield, the 20th President of the United States. Taken in 1881 by an American photographer, this portrait showcases Garfield's conservative demeanor and distinguished profile. Garfield's presidency was tragically cut short when he became only the second president in history to be assassinated on July 2nd, 1881. His term lasted a mere six months, making it one of the shortest in U. S. history after William Henry Harrison. The image portrays Garfield with his iconic beard and wearing a fedora hat, exuding an air of authority and statesmanship. It is evident that this photograph was taken during a time when photography was still evolving as an art form. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from a private collection, we are reminded of Garfield's significant role in shaping American politics during his brief tenure. This portrait serves as a poignant reminder of both his accomplishments and untimely demise. Preserved by Peter Newark American Pictures, this photograph offers us a glimpse into the life and legacy of James Abram Garfield - an influential figure who left an indelible mark on American history.
