1. Title: "Heber Chase Kimball, Mormon Leader, Photographed at Salt Lake City, June 1866" 2. Description: This CDV (carte-de-visite) photograph features Heber Chase Kimball (1801-1868), a prominent Mormon leader, captured during his visit to Salt Lake City in June 1866. The image offers a rare glimpse into the life of a key figure in the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. 3. Background: Heber C. Kimball was born on April 12, 1801, in Vermont, USA. He joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1832 and was later called as an Apostle by Joseph Smith, the church's founder, in 1835. Kimball played a significant role in the early history of the Mormon faith, including participating in the establishment of the church in Utah. 4. Historical Context: The photograph was taken during a pivotal time in Mormon history. The church was facing challenges from both internal and external forces, including the Civil War and tensions with the US government. Despite these difficulties, Kimball and other church leaders continued to guide their community, helping to ensure the survival and growth of the Mormon faith in Utah. 5. Composition and Details: In the photograph, Kimball is shown wearing a dark suit and sitting against a plain background. His expression is calm and serious, reflecting the weight of responsibility he bore as a leader of the Mormon community. The photograph's crisp details and excellent preservation allow viewers to study Kimball's facial features and clothing, offering a tangible connection to the past. 6. Significance: This photograph is a valuable historical document, providing insight into the appearance and demeanor of a key Mormon leader during a critical period in the faith's history. It also offers a glimpse into the daily life and visual culture of Salt Lake City during the late 19th century.
