EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Jonas Hartzell McGowan of Michigan, captured between 1865 and 1880. The creator of this remarkable portrait remains unknown, but it beautifully captures the essence of a man who played significant roles in various fields during his lifetime. Jonas Hartzell McGowan was not only a distinguished politician and lawyer but also served as a Union Army soldier during the American Civil War. He valiantly fought for his country as part of both the Fifth and Ninth Regiments, Michigan Volunteer Cavalry. Rising through the ranks, he eventually attained the rank of Captain with the 9th Mich. Cavalry in spring 1863. With his striking beard and commanding presence, McGowan's portrait reflects strength, determination, and wisdom that befit a man who dedicated himself to public service. His contributions to lawmaking as a legislator were highly regarded by his peers. Preserved within glass negatives from the late 19th century at Library of Congress' Brady Handy Collection, this image serves as a testament to an era defined by political upheaval and societal change in America.
