EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of William Worth Belknap, a prominent figure in American history. Belknap, born in 1829 and passing away in 1890, was not only an esteemed army officer but also a respected politician. The photograph was skillfully taken by Mathew Brady, renowned for his iconic images during the 19th century. Belknap's distinguished appearance is highlighted by his well-groomed beard, which adds to his aura of authority and wisdom. As an officer in the Union Army during the Civil War, he played a significant role in preserving the United States as one nation. His dedication to duty earned him respect among fellow soldiers and statesmen alike. Beyond his military achievements, Belknap ventured into politics and served as Secretary of War under President Ulysses S. Grant's administration. This position allowed him to contribute further to shaping America's future during a crucial period of reconstruction after the war. The photograph serves as a testament to Belknap's legacy as both soldier and statesman—a true Yankee who dedicated himself wholeheartedly to serving his country. It encapsulates an era when men like Belknap played pivotal roles in shaping America's destiny.
