EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "President McKinley delivering his last address, Buffalo, September 5, 1901," was captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1901. The image, which showcases President William McKinley delivering a speech during the Pan-American Exposition, was a significant one as it turned out to be his final public appearance before his tragic assassination later that day. The poignant image of McKinley, with his determined expression and confident posture, left a lasting impression on the public. So much so, that it was later used as the inspiration for the McKinley National Memorial Statue in Canton, Ohio. The statue, which stands as a tribute to the 25th President of the United States, was modeled directly from this photograph. Frances Benjamin Johnston's photograph was not only historically significant but also commercially popular. Postcards bearing reproductions of the image were sold widely, as evidenced by this broadside advertising their availability for purchase. The postcards served as valuable mementos for people to keep and share, allowing them to connect with history in a tangible way. The photograph's enduring appeal is a testament to Johnston's skill as a photographer and the profound impact McKinley had on the American people. Today, the image remains an essential piece of both American political and photographic history.
