EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures Albert Sidney Burleson, a prominent political figure from Texas during the early 20th century. Burleson served as a Representative in the United States Congress from 1899 to 1913, before being appointed as the Postmaster General under President Woodrow Wilson in 1913. He held this position until 1921. The image, created by the renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, depicts Burleson in a formal attire, standing tall and confident in a full-length portrait. The background is plain, allowing the focus to remain on the subject. Burleson's serious expression and steady gaze convey a sense of determination and authority. As a lawmaker and legislator, Burleson played a significant role in shaping the communication and political landscape of the United States during a pivotal period in its history. The postal service, under his leadership as Postmaster General, underwent significant improvements and expansions, contributing to the country's growing infrastructure and connectivity. This photograph is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art Collection at the Library of Congress, providing a glimpse into the past and preserving the legacy of a man who left an indelible mark on American history. Taken by Harris & Ewing, the photograph is a testament to the studio's skill in capturing the essence of their subjects and documenting history in the process.
