EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Millard Fillmore, the 13th President of the United States, taken from Charles Mackay's renowned book "The History of the United States, Vol. II". The image was engraved by W. J. Edwards based on a daguerreotype captured by Mathew Brady, an esteemed photographer of his time. In this portrait, Fillmore exudes a sense of dignity and wisdom befitting his role as a leader. His piercing gaze reflects both determination and contemplation. With every detail carefully etched into the print, it is evident that great care was taken to capture Fillmore's likeness accurately. Fillmore's presidency marked a significant era in American history. As one of the last Whig presidents before their party dissolved, he faced numerous challenges during his tenure. However, this image focuses solely on him as an individual rather than delving into political matters. The background subtly alludes to another aspect of American history: the gold rush. Depicting Fillmore engaged in gold panning and washing activities symbolizes not only his connection to this historical event but also represents America's pioneering spirit and relentless pursuit of prosperity. This remarkable print is part of a private collection and serves as a testament to our nation's past leaders who have shaped its course over time. It invites viewers to reflect upon the legacy left behind by figures like Millard Fillmore while appreciating the artistry involved in preserving these historical moments for future generations.
