EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of Levi Woodbury, masterfully engraved by Robert E. Whitechurch in the early 19th century. The engraving, a true work of art, captures the essence and character of Woodbury with remarkable precision. Levi Woodbury was an influential statesman and politician who made significant contributions to American history. Serving as both Secretary of the Navy from 1831 to 1834 and Secretary of Treasury from 1834 to 1841, he played a crucial role in shaping the nation's policies during a critical period. In this half-length portrait, we see Woodbury exuding confidence and wisdom. His piercing gaze reflects his astute legal mind as he navigated complex political landscapes. A man dedicated to public service, he tirelessly worked towards advancing America's interests on both domestic and international fronts. James Barton Longacre skillfully captured this iconic image after which Whitechurch meticulously engraved it onto paper for posterity. Preserved within a private collection today, this artwork is a testament to the rich heritage that shaped our great nation. As we admire this historic piece, let us remember Levi Woodbury's enduring legacy as an exceptional lawyer, esteemed senator, and revered statesman who left an indelible mark on North American politics.
