EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic presence of Elijah Ward, a prominent politician and lawyer from New York during the late 19th century. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to this historical artifact. Elijah Ward's distinguished appearance is highlighted by his well-groomed facial hair, which includes a meticulously styled mustache. His confident gaze and composed demeanor reflect his status as a respected lawmaker and legislator. The image was captured using glass negatives between 1865 and 1880, showcasing the early days of photography in America. It belongs to the Brady Handy Collection, curated by Mathew B. Brady, one of the most renowned photographers of that era. Ward's portrait serves as a testament to his contribution to American politics during a transformative period in history. As an attorney and congressman, he played an instrumental role in shaping legislation that impacted both his constituents and the country at large. Preserved within the Library of Congress archives, this stereoscopic photograph offers us a glimpse into Ward's world - capturing not only his physical likeness but also providing insight into the political landscape of 19th-century America. As we admire this still image frozen in time, we are reminded of Ward's enduring legacy as a dedicated public servant who left an indelible mark on our nation's history.
