EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Seth Kinman, a legendary American hunter from the 1860s. Captured in 1955 by Mathew Brady, renowned historian with a camera, this image offers a glimpse into the life of an extraordinary man. Kinman, born in 1815 and passing away in 1888, was based at Fort Humboldt in California. In this portrait, Kinman stands proudly before his historic visit to the White House where he presented President Lincoln with a chair made entirely from elk horn. Dressed in traditional buckskin attire that reflects his rugged lifestyle as a backwoodsman and trapper, Kinman exudes strength and determination. The monochrome composition adds depth to the image while emphasizing every detail of his bearded face and weathered clothing. It transports us back to the untamed wilderness of nineteenth-century America when men like Kinman roamed freely across vast expanses of uncharted land. As we contemplate this photograph today, we are reminded of the resilience and spirit that defined our nation's history. Seth Kinman represents not only an exceptional hunter but also embodies the adventurous character that shaped America during its formative years. This remarkable print serves as both a visual testament to one man's unique journey through time and an homage to all those who contributed to shaping our great country.
