EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Robert Ingersoll, captured between 1865 and 1880. The creator remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to this remarkable portrait. Ingersoll was a multifaceted individual - a politician, lawyer, writer, orator, and Union Army soldier who earned the nickname "The Great Agnostic". In his military career, he commanded the 11th Regiment Illinois Volunteer Cavalry with great distinction. Later on, he served as the Attorney General for Illinois. Ingersoll's beliefs were rooted in agnosticism; he questioned conventional religious doctrines while advocating for reason and free thought. Mathew Brady's glass negatives collection at the Library of Congress preserves this valuable piece of American history. This photograph offers a glimpse into the life of a man deeply involved in politics during the nineteenth century. The image portrays Ingersoll as a confident and distinguished gentleman with piercing eyes that seem to hold countless stories within them. His presence exudes intelligence and charisma. As we delve into this snapshot from our past, we are reminded of how individuals like Robert Ingersoll shaped America through their ideas and actions. This print serves as both a testament to his legacy as well as an invitation to explore further into his fascinating life journey.
