EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Authors of the United States" and dated around 1866, offers a fascinating glimpse into the literary world of America during the mid-19th century. The photograph, which is part of the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, features a gathering of esteemed authors from the United States. The authors, all dressed in formal attire, are seated around a long table, each engrossed in their own thoughts or in deep conversation with one another. The room is filled with an air of intellectual curiosity and creativity, as these literary luminaries share ideas and inspiration. Some of the authors in the photograph can be identified, including Edward Everett Hale, who is seated in the center, and Mark Twain, who is seen on the far right. Hale was a prominent American author, editor, and lecturer, best known for his short story "The Man Without a Country." Twain, of course, is one of the most celebrated American authors of all time, renowned for his works "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" and "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn." The photograph also includes other notable figures such as Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., who is seated to the left of Twain, and James Russell Lowell, who is seated to the right of Hale. Holmes was a physician, poet, and essayist, while Lowell was a poet, critic, and diplomat. The "Authors of the United States" photograph is a testament to the rich literary heritage of America during the mid-19th century. It serves as a reminder of the importance of intellectual discourse and the power of the written word to bring people together and inspire new ideas. This image is a must-see for anyone with an interest in American literature or the history of the written word in the United States.
