EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures W. C. Whitthorne, a prominent figure in 19th-century American politics. Taken between 1870 and 1880 by an unknown photographer, the image showcases Whitthorne's formal attire, reflecting the fashion of that era. Whitthorne was not only an attorney but also a respected politician affiliated with the Democratic Party. His dedication to public service led him to serve as a general in the Confederate Army during the Civil War before transitioning into a successful career in law and politics. The photograph emanates strength and determination as Whitthorne stands confidently dressed in his coat and jacket. The details captured by Mathew Brady's glass negatives highlight every aspect of his clothing, emphasizing both its elegance and formality. Preserved within the Congressional Library at the Library of Congress, this historic print offers us a glimpse into America's political landscape during this transformative period. It serves as a testament to Whitthorne's contribution to shaping our nation's history. As we admire this portrait today, it is important to remember that behind every photograph lies stories untold – stories that shed light on our heritage and remind us of those who have paved the way for progress.
