EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the inaugural procession of Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, as he made his way to his swearing-in ceremony at the Capitol Building in Washington D.C. on March 16, 1861. The photograph, published in Harper's Weekly, depicts the President-elect in a horse-drawn carriage, surrounded by a large crowd of onlookers lining the streets. Military personnel can be seen marching in formation, adding an air of solemnity and importance to the occasion. The grand facade of the Capitol Building looms in the background, its ornate columns and intricate lettering a testament to the rich history and heritage of the United States. The gate at the entrance to the Capitol Grounds serves as a symbolic threshold, marking the beginning of Lincoln's presidency and the challenges that lay ahead. This historic moment in American history was captured by an unknown photographer, adding to the mystery and intrigue of this powerful and enduring image.
