EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a posthumous portrait of James Abram Garfield, the 20th President of the United States. Taken in 1885, this color-printed wood engraving beautifully captures the essence of a remarkable leader who left an indelible mark on American politics. Garfield's presidency was tragically cut short when he was shot on July 2nd, 1881, and succumbed to his injuries on September 19th of that same year. Despite his brief time in office, Garfield's impact resonated throughout the country. In this portrait, we see a statesman with unwavering determination etched onto his face. The vibrant colors bring life to his image and serve as a reminder of the vibrancy he brought to America during his tenure. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported back to the late 19th century - a pivotal era for our nation. It serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic masterpiece that encapsulates an important chapter in American history. The unknown creator behind this print has expertly captured Garfield's spirit and presence through their skillful use of wood engraving techniques. This photograph is not just a representation but also an homage to one man's dedication towards leading our great nation forward. Through this powerful visual medium, we are reminded of Garfield's legacy as an influential politician and leader who shaped America during its formative years.
