EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Horace Greeley, a prominent figure in American politics during the 19th century. With his piercing gaze and dignified demeanor, Greeley exudes wisdom and experience beyond his years. As the founder, owner, and editor of the influential New York Tribune, he used his platform to advocate for political parties like Whig and Republican. Greeley's impact extended far beyond journalism; he played a pivotal role in shaping American history as one of the founders of the Republican Party. A passionate promoter of Western settlement, he popularized the famous phrase "Go West, young man". This iconic statement encapsulates Greeley's belief in manifest destiny and his unwavering support for westward expansion. In this portrait, we see an elderly Greeley seated with an air of authority befitting a seasoned politician. His age is evident through every wrinkle on his face but does not diminish his determination or commitment to reform. As a journalist and government official, Greeley dedicated himself to championing causes close to his heart. The photographer skillfully captured this moment in time from Peter Newark American Pictures collection. Preserved within private archives today, this image serves as a powerful reminder of Horace Greeley's significant contributions to American politics as well as his enduring legacy as a respected journalist and reformer.
