EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of Franklin Benjamin Sanborn, an influential American social reformer. With a stern yet thoughtful expression on his face, Sanborn's portrait exudes intelligence and determination. Born in 1831 and passing away in 1917, Sanborn dedicated his life to advocating for positive change within society. As a journalist, social scientist, and writer, he used his platform to shed light on pressing issues of his time. His work encompassed various aspects of reform including politics, education, and civil rights. Photographed by H G Smith in Boston during the 19th century using the albumen process, this image captures not only Sanborn's physical appearance but also hints at the depth of character that defined him as a person. The composition focuses solely on his head and shoulders which draws attention to his piercing gaze and strong facial features. Preserved by the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, Massachusetts, this historical artifact serves as a testament to Sanborn's enduring legacy. It reminds us of the important role played by individuals like him who tirelessly fought for progress during challenging times. As we reflect upon this photograph today, it serves as a reminder that social reformers such as Franklin Benjamin Sanborn continue to inspire us with their dedication towards creating a more just society.
