EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures a moment in time during the early days of the American Civil War, featuring the sons of President Abraham Lincoln: Willie, aged eleven, and Tad, the younger brother, posing with their cousin Lockwood Todd in Mathew Brady's studio in Washington D.C. in the year 1861. Willie and Tad were the beloved sons of the 16th President of the United States, who was deeply devoted to his family despite the immense responsibilities of leading the nation through its most tumultuous period. The boys' mother, Mary Todd Lincoln, arranged for this photograph to be taken, likely as a keepsake to remember this brief moment of happiness amidst the turmoil of war. The presence of their cousin Lockwood Todd, son of Mary's sister Elizabeth Todd Edwards, adds an interesting dynamic to the image. The three boys appear to be engaged in a playful interaction, their youthful energy contrasting with the weight of the historical events unfolding around them. Tragically, this photograph would come to hold a deeper significance for the Lincoln family, as Willie would pass away just a few months later on February 20, 1862, due to typhoid fever. The loss of his eldest son deeply affected Abraham Lincoln, and the family would continue to endure further heartache when Tad's favorite pet, a turkey named Jack, was killed for Christmas dinner in 1863. This poignant image serves as a poignant reminder of the human side of history, showcasing the love and loss experienced by the Lincoln family during their time in the White House.
