EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Surgeon General Barnes, a prominent figure in 19th century America. Taken between 1865 and 1880 by an unknown photographer, the image showcases a distinguished man with striking facial hair known as mutton chop sideburns. Surgeon General Joseph K. Barnes played a significant role in American history as he attended President Abraham Lincoln on his deathbed after he was tragically shot. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of that fateful moment. The portrait exudes strength and determination, reflecting the character of this military officer who dedicated his life to medicine and science. His piercing gaze reveals both intelligence and compassion, traits necessary for someone entrusted with such immense responsibility during one of the most pivotal periods in American history - the Civil War era. Preserved within the Library of Congress' Brady Handy Collection, this stereographic card offers us a glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with our country's heritage through visual storytelling. The monochrome tones add depth to this historical artifact while emphasizing its timeless significance. As we admire Surgeon General Barnes' portrait today, we are reminded not only of his individual contributions but also of countless unsung heroes who have shaped our nation's destiny through their dedication and service.
