EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Tomas Jordan, a remarkable figure from American history. Born in 1819, Jordan played a significant role as an engineer during the war of secession. In the 1920s, this portrait was captured, revealing his distinguished appearance. With a beard that exudes wisdom and experience, Jordan's profile is highlighted against his formal attire - a bow tie and jacket. His gaze looks away into the distance, perhaps reflecting on his past battles or contemplating future endeavors. In March 1869, Jordan made an impactful arrival on Cuban shores with 200 men and an arsenal of 2,000 rifles. Later that year in December, he assumed leadership of the Army after replacing Quesada. One of his notable achievements was winning the battle of Minas (Mines) on January 1st, 1870. After retiring from military service, Thomas Jordan lived until his passing in 1895. This historic photograph not only captures his physical presence but also symbolizes resilience and determination amidst turbulent times. Preserved as a cigar card within "The History of Cuba" this image serves as a reminder of America's rich heritage and its connection to Cuba. As we delve into this monochrome portrait from the early twentieth century, we are transported back to an era when courage defined individuals like Tomas Jordan - brave souls who shaped nations through their unwavering commitment to their cause.
