EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures Bishop William Bacon Stevens, a prominent figure in the Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania during the mid-19th century. The photograph, taken between 1855 and 1865 by an unknown photographer, showcases Bishop Stevens' dignified presence and unwavering commitment to his faith. As a key leader within the Anglican community in America, Bishop Stevens played a significant role in shaping the Church of England's influence on American Christianity. His dedication to his calling is evident through his clerical attire and composed expression. The image was preserved as part of the Brady Handy Collection at the Library of Congress, reflecting its historical importance. This collection includes glass negatives from 1850 to 1870 that capture various aspects of American life during that time period. Bishop Stevens' portrait serves as a reminder of both religious heritage and national history. It symbolizes not only his personal devotion but also represents countless individuals who have dedicated their lives to serving their communities through faith. This still image provides us with a glimpse into nineteenth-century America and offers insight into the influential figures who shaped religious practices during this era. Although we may not know much about the photographer or specific details surrounding this particular print, it remains an invaluable piece of our cultural legacy.
