EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases William C. "Colorado". Jewett, a prominent writer and journalist who advocated for peace during the American Civil War. The exact date of the photograph is uncertain but it was taken between 1855 and 1865. In this portrait, Jewett exudes an air of wisdom and determination. His full beard and fur-trimmed coat add to his distinguished appearance, reflecting the fashion trends of the time. The image captures him in a moment of contemplation, with his hat perched atop his head. The photographer remains unknown, yet their skill is evident in capturing Jewett's essence as an activist and advocate for peace during one of America's most tumultuous periods. This print now resides in the Congressional Library's collection at the Library of Congress. Jewett's commitment to promoting peaceful resolutions amidst conflict made him a notable figure during the 19th century. As a journalist, he used his platform to voice alternative perspectives on war-related issues. This photograph serves as both a historical artifact and a testament to Jewett's dedication to his cause. It offers us a glimpse into the life of an influential man who played an important role in shaping public opinion during such challenging times. As we admire this portrait today, we are reminded not only of Jewett's individual impact but also how individuals can shape history through their activism and advocacy efforts.
