EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Mrs. Cleveland and the Ladies of the Cabinet, no. 2,' was captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in the late 1890s. The image showcases First Lady Frances Folsom Cleveland, the youngest wife of a sitting president at the time, surrounded by the wives of cabinet members. The women in the photograph include Jane P. Francis, Miss Morton, M.J. Carlisle, Olive Harmon, Frances Cleveland, Juliet K. Lamont, Agnes P. Olney, Leila Herbert, and Nannie H. Wilson. The women are elegantly dressed in the fashionable attire of the 1890s, donning high collars, intricate hairstyles, and voluminous skirts. The setting is the Congressional Library in Washington D.C., where the ladies of the cabinet gathered for this group portrait. Frances Cleveland, who was only 21 when she became First Lady, is depicted in the center of the photograph, exuding grace and poise. Her husband, President Grover Cleveland, was known for his conservative political views and strong moral character, making Frances' youth and beauty a refreshing contrast. The photograph is a testament to the social and political climate of the late 19th century in the United States. It provides a glimpse into the lives of the women who played supporting roles in the political arena during a time when women's roles were beginning to evolve and expand. The hairstyles, clothing, and overall aesthetic of the photograph offer a fascinating look into the fashion trends and societal norms of the era. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a prominent American photographer, expertly captured this moment in history, preserving it for future generations to appreciate and study. The photograph is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection and a testament to the rich history of the United States.
