EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print captures the momentous occasion of Jefferson Davis' inauguration as President of the Confederate States of America, which took place on February 22, 1861, outside the courthouse in Richmond, Virginia. The scene is filled with a sense of anticipation and solemnity as Davis takes the oath of office, marking the formal beginning of the Confederate States' existence. Surrounded by a crowd of supporters, Davis stands confidently, his hand raised, as the Reverend R. M. T. Cary administers the oath. The dignified architecture of the courthouse serves as a backdrop to the event, adding to the gravity of the moment. This image, produced by the Illustrated London News in 1889, is an important historical record of a pivotal moment in American history, providing a glimpse into the past and offering a window into the people and events that shaped the Confederacy."
