EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white family portrait photograph is a priceless glimpse into the life of Senator Henry Hall Falkener and his beloved family. The formal setting showcases the elegance and dignity of this African American household during the early 20th century. Seated on the left is Senator Falkener himself, exuding confidence and strength. Beside him sits his wife, Margaret Mitchell Falkener, radiating grace and poise. Standing behind their parents are three sons - Hershel, Ralph, and George "Harold". Falkener - each displaying their own unique personalities. Waldo C. Falkener Sr. , another son of the senator's, finds comfort perched on a chair arm between his parents while baby John "Quentin". Falkener rests peacefully in his mother's arms. A loyal dog lies obediently at the feet of Senator and Mrs. Falkener, symbolizing loyalty within this tight-knit family unit. Handwritten notations on the verso provide valuable information about this historical artifact while adding an air of mystery surrounding its origins. This photograph stands as a testament to resilience amidst adversity for African Americans in America during that time period. Preserved by the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC), this image serves as a reminder of our shared cultural heritage as well as an inspiration for future generations to honor their roots with pride.
