EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures James A. Garfield, the 20th President of the United States, in 1893. Despite his short-lived presidency lasting only 200 days, Garfield's legacy remains significant. Tragically, his life was cut short when he fell victim to an assassin's bullet on September 19,1881. Charles J. Guiteau had shot him two months earlier and this event shook the nation. In this side view portrait, Garfield exudes a sense of authority and determination befitting a statesman. His distinguished beard frames his face as he gazes into the distance with a thoughtful expression. The oval-shaped engraving adds an air of elegance to the image. Published by Frederick Warne and Co. , this print is part of "The Pictorial Treasury of Famous Men and Famous Deeds" which showcases influential figures throughout history. It serves as a reminder not only of Garfield's political career but also of the turbulent times in American history during which he served. As we reflect upon this black-and-white photograph from the late nineteenth century, we are reminded that even great leaders can fall victim to acts of violence fueled by political strife. This image encapsulates both tragedy and resilience while honoring James A. Garfield's contributions to shaping our country's future despite his untimely demise.
