EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Daniel Webster, a prominent 19th century American statesman. Captured around 1880, the portrait exudes an air of wisdom and authority. Webster's remarkable political career spanned both the United States Senate and Secretary of State position. His influence was instrumental in shaping America's foreign policy during his time. One of Webster's notable achievements was his pivotal role in drafting the Webster-Ashburton Treaty in 1842. This treaty successfully resolved tensions between the United States and Britain that had arisen from the Caroline Affair, an incident related to the Upper Canada Rebellion of 1837. By establishing clear boundaries between Canada and the US, this agreement solidified peace on their eastern frontier. The engraving is part of Cassells History of the United States by Edmund Ollier, Volume III, published in London circa 1880. It offers a glimpse into not only Daniel Webster's life but also into American politics during this transformative era. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of Webster's significant contributions to his country as a skilled politician and diplomat. His legacy lives on as he played a crucial role in shaping America's history through his dedication to public service and commitment to resolving international conflicts peacefully.
