EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a powerful moment in American history. In this poignant black and white lithograph by Harley, we witness an elderly man expressing his deep grief and frustration at the ballot box. Dressed in traditional nineteenth-century attire with a top hat atop his head, he stands as a symbol of both personal loss and national turmoil. The man's hand gestures convey his emotional intensity as he casts his vote during a time when the United States was embroiled in the devastating American Civil War. The war had claimed the life of his beloved son, leaving him bereaved and seeking solace through political participation. This image serves as a reminder of how deeply divided our country was during this tumultuous period. It also highlights the significance of elections in shaping our nation's future. President Abraham Lincoln's presence looms over this scene as one can imagine that it is under his leadership that this grieving father seeks justice for himself and countless others who have suffered similar losses. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this photograph print from Heritage Images invites us to reflect on our democratic heritage while honoring those who sacrificed their lives for their country.
