EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia print showcases a Platinum Rice Print of Ulysses S. Grant, taken in 1865 and printed in 1901 by Alexander Gardner. The photograph measures 42 x 34 cm and is part of the esteemed Gilder Lehrman Collection in New York, USA. Grant, the 18th President of the United States (1822-1885), is portrayed seated with an air of authority and strength. The copyright notice from 1902 can be seen on the lower left corner, indicating its historical significance. The image was captured by Gardner using the original imperial negative during a time when Moses Rice served as his assistant or that of Brady's during the American Civil War. Rice later established his own studio while retaining some negatives. Grant's presence exudes power as he dons his military uniform and sports a distinguished beard. This portrait offers a glimpse into America's rich history during the late nineteenth century. The photograph evokes nostalgia for this pivotal period in American history, capturing Grant's essence as both a military leader and influential president. Displayed proudly at eGilder Lehrman Institute of American History, this platinum print serves as a testament to Grant's enduring legacy and contributions to shaping the United States of America.
