1. Title: "Benjamin Harrison, 23rd President of the United States". This photograph captures the distinguished and serious visage of Benjamin Harrison, the 23rd President of the United States, as he gazes intently into the distance. Born on November 20, 1820, in North Bend, Ohio, Harrison was the grandson of a signer of the Declaration of Independence, William Henry Harrison. He served as a Union Army officer during the American Civil War and later became a successful lawyer and politician. Harrison's presidency, which lasted from March 1889 to March 1893, was marked by several significant accomplishments. He signed the Sherman Antitrust Act, which aimed to limit the power of monopolies and trusts, and he established the U.S. Geological Survey to study natural resources. Harrison also worked to improve the U.S. Navy and supported the annexation of Hawaii. Despite his achievements, Harrison faced numerous challenges during his presidency. The economy was in a recession, and he was unable to win re-election in 1892. This photograph, taken during his time in office, captures the gravity and determination of a man who served his country with honor and dedication. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is a testament to the rich history of American politics and the men who have shaped the nation. It is a poignant reminder of the past and the enduring legacy of those who have led our country through its most challenging times. This image is available for research and educational purposes only. It is not to be used for commercial gain without the express permission of Mary Evans Picture Library.
