EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished portrait of Gouverneur Morris, a prominent American statesman and Founding Father. The image, drawn from life in the late 18th century, beautifully captures Morris' smooth hair and pigtail queue, which were fashionable hairstyles during that era. Gouverneur Morris (1752-1816) played a crucial role in shaping American history as a signatory to both the Articles of Confederation and the United States Constitution. His contributions to politics and his country are immortalized in this engraving. The photograph is taken from "History of American Costume - Book One 1607-1800" by Elisabeth McClellan, published by Tudor Publishing Company in New York in 1937. This historical book delves into the evolution of fashion throughout America's early years. The oval-shaped frame adds an elegant touch to this timeless piece of art. It offers viewers a side view profile of Morris, emphasizing his dignified presence and political stature. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to a pivotal time in American history when men like Gouverneur Morris laid the foundation for our nation's future. Through their dedication and vision, they paved the way for democracy to flourish within our great land – forever leaving an indelible mark on our collective memory.
