EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from an American newspaper in 1881 showcases Lucretia Garfield, the esteemed wife of President James A. Garfield. The image captures a significant moment as Mrs. Garfield prepares to embark on an evening ride, leaving the grandeur of the White House behind her. Dressed elegantly in a fashionable gown, Lucretia exudes grace and poise as she steps into a horse-drawn buggy, ready to explore the streets of Washington D. C. The intricate details of this engraving beautifully depict both the opulence of her attire and the intricacies of the carriage. As one gazes upon this historical print, it is impossible not to be transported back in time to witness this remarkable woman's journey through history. Lucretia Garfield played a vital role by supporting her husband during his presidency and was known for her intelligence and strong character. This engraving serves as a testament to not only Mrs. Garfield's prominence but also highlights transportation during that era with its depiction of stagecoaches and horses - symbols synonymous with travel at that time. Preserved by The Granger Collection, this piece offers us a glimpse into America's past while honoring an influential figure who left an indelible mark on our nation's history.
