EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the dignified presence of Bishop Jonathan Mayhew Wainwright, a prominent figure in 19th century American Anglican history. Taken between 1855 and 1865 by an unknown photographer, this image showcases the bishop's profound influence as a provisional Episcopal bishop in Manhattan, New York City. Bishop Wainwright's expression exudes both wisdom and compassion, reflecting his dedication to Christianity and his role within the Church of England. As a respected churchman and clergyman, he played a significant part in shaping religious life during this era. The photograph is part of the Brady Handy Collection at the Library of Congress, adding historical significance to its already compelling subject matter. The collection itself consists of glass negatives from 1850 to 1870, providing valuable insights into America's past. In this portrait, Bishop Wainwright stands as a testament to faith and leadership amidst turbulent times. His British heritage is evident through his attire and demeanor; however, it is within the United States that he made his mark on religious communities. This still image serves as a reminder of the enduring impact individuals can have on their country and society through their unwavering commitment to their beliefs. It invites viewers to reflect upon the rich tapestry of American history while appreciating Bishop Jonathan Mayhew Wainwright's contributions as an influential Episcopalian leader.
