EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print captures the distinguished presence of George Frisbie Hoar, a prominent American politician of the 19th century. Taken between 1876 and 1880 by Samuel Montague Fassett, this photograph showcases Hoar's formal attire and his remarkable facial hair, including sideburns that were popular during that era. As a senator from Massachusetts, Hoar played a significant role in shaping American politics and policies. The image exudes an air of intelligence and sophistication as Hoar gazes confidently into the camera while wearing spectacles. His refined appearance reflects both his educational background and his political stature. Known for his strong advocacy for education, he was instrumental in establishing scientific institutions across the country. Fassett's skillful composition highlights every detail of Hoar's clothing - from his well-tailored suit to the intricate patterns on his tie - emphasizing both elegance and professionalism. The cabinet card format adds to its historical charm. Preserved within the Smithsonian Institution Archive, this portrait serves as a testament to Hoar's lasting legacy in American politics. It offers viewers a glimpse into an influential figure who dedicated himself to public service with unwavering commitment. Through Fassett's lens, we are transported back to a time when politicians like George Frisbie Hoar shaped our nation with their intellect, vision, and dedication to progress.
