EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "ELECTORAL COMMISSION, 1877" captures a significant moment in American history. In 1876, the presidential election faced controversy as twenty electoral votes were disputed. To resolve this issue and determine the rightful winner, members of the Electoral Commission convened in 1877. This image showcases a group of distinguished men who played crucial roles in this commission. The photograph was taken by Mathew Brady and later transformed into wood engravings for wider distribution. Each individual's portrait is meticulously captured, allowing us to glimpse into their personalities and contributions. Among these notable figures are Allen G. Thurman, George F. Edmunds, Samuel J. Tilden, Joseph P. Bradley, Frederick T. Frelinghuysen, Thomas M. Bayard, James A. Garfield and many others who dedicated themselves to ensuring a fair resolution to this contentious election. This print serves as a reminder of the importance of democracy and peaceful conflict resolution within political systems. It also highlights the significance of historical events that shape nations' futures. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this remarkable piece from Granger Collection NYC with great care so that we can appreciate its historical value today. This print offers an opportunity for viewers to delve deeper into America's past while reflecting on how far our democratic processes have come since then.
