EDITORS COMMENTS
This black-and-white cabinet card photograph, taken by renowned Railway Photographers Cronyn & Hibbs in the late 19th century, showcases a significant moment between an African-American man and woman. The man is seated on the left side of the image, exuding confidence in his dark-colored suit as his hands rest calmly on his lap. Standing proudly beside him on the right is a woman dressed elegantly in a dark-colored dress with a white handkerchief tied around her neck. The body language captured in this portrait speaks volumes about their relationship - her right arm gently placed behind him signifies support and loyalty, while her left hand remains discreetly hidden behind her own back. The inscription at the bottom of the card reads "mothers friends!!", suggesting that these two individuals share a close bond within their community. This photograph serves as a powerful testament to African-American history during this era, offering us insight into their lives and experiences. Preserved within gelatin silver prints like this one, our cultural heritage comes alive through images that document moments often overlooked or forgotten. Now housed at the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC), this remarkable piece invites viewers to reflect upon not only the individuals portrayed but also broader themes such as identity, resilience, and unity. It stands as an enduring reminder of our shared past and continues to inspire conversations about representation and diversity today.
