EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Greenbury Lafayette Fort, a prominent figure in 19th-century American politics. The image captures the essence of a man who wore many hats throughout his life - from politician to sheriff, judge, lawyer, and Union Army soldier. Fort's distinguished appearance is highlighted by his well-groomed beard and commanding presence. His facial expression exudes determination and wisdom, reflecting the years of experience he gained serving his country and community. As a lieutenant colonel and quartermaster in the Eleventh Regiment, Illinois Volunteer Infantry during the Civil War, Fort played an integral role in preserving the unity of our nation. The photograph was taken between 1865-1880 by an unknown creator but has found its place among other glass negatives within the Brady Handy Collection at the Library of Congress. This historical artifact offers us a glimpse into not only Fort's personal journey but also serves as a testament to America's political landscape during that era. As we admire this portrait today, we are reminded of Fort's dedication to public service and his contributions as both a lawmaker and law enforcer. It stands as a reminder that even amidst tumultuous times in our nation's history, individuals like Greenbury Lafayette Fort emerged as pillars of strength for their communities.
