EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from 1856 depicts Samuel Houston, a prominent American soldier and political leader of the mid-19th century. The image is based on a photograph taken by Mathew Brady, one of the most renowned photographers of his time. Houston's commanding presence is evident in this print, as he stands tall with an air of confidence and authority. Dressed in fashionable attire of the era, Houston exudes both elegance and strength. His cane adds to his distinguished appearance, symbolizing wisdom and experience. As a statesman, Houston played a crucial role in shaping American history. He served as the President of the Republic of Texas before it was annexed into the United States. Later on, he became a U. S. Senator representing Texas during its tumultuous years leading up to the Civil War. The engraving beautifully captures Houston's facial features and expression - his piercing eyes seem to reflect his determination and unwavering commitment to his beliefs. This portrayal highlights not only his military prowess but also emphasizes his influential leadership qualities that made him such an important figure during this transformative period in American history. Displayed proudly on any wall or desk space, this historical artwork serves as a reminder of Samuel Houston's significant contributions to our nation as well as an appreciation for artistry capturing moments frozen in time through photography turned engravings like these from Granger Art on Demand collection
