EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the dignified presence of McGuire, Father of Georgetown University in 1866. The photograph, taken around 1860-1865 by an unknown creator, showcases the formal attire and fashion of the era. Dressed impeccably in his Catholic priest's clothing, McGuire exudes a sense of authority and wisdom. Georgetown University, one of America's prestigious educational institutions, owes much to this influential figure who played a significant role in its history. As a Jesuit priest from Ireland, McGuire brought his deep-rooted faith and commitment to education to the country during a transformative period. The glass negative used for this print is part of the Brady Handy Collection housed at the Library of Congress. This collection contains invaluable historical photographs that provide glimpses into American life during the 19th century. McGuire's portrait serves as a reminder not only of his individual contribution but also represents an important chapter in American religious and educational history. Through photography, we are granted access to moments frozen in time that allow us to connect with our past. As we gaze upon this image today, we can appreciate both its artistic qualities and its historical significance. It serves as a testament to McGuire's legacy as well as Georgetown University's enduring commitment to academic excellence rooted in Catholic tradition.
