EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Clara Barton, c. 1865" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the life of an extraordinary woman. Clara Barton, founder and president of the American Red Cross from 1881, is beautifully captured in this sepia-toned photogravure by Mathew Brady. Seated at a table adorned with a delicate clock, Clara exudes grace and determination as she gazes confidently into the camera. Her gloved hands rest gently on the table's surface, symbolizing her tireless dedication to serving others. Dressed in an elegant gown that befits her status as a pioneer and advocate for civil rights, Clara's three-quarter-length portrait showcases her unwavering commitment to humanitarian causes. As a nurse during the American Civil War, she tirelessly cared for wounded soldiers on both sides of the conflict. Beyond her role as a nurse and humanitarian, Clara was also an influential teacher and feminist who fought tirelessly for gender equality. This photograph captures not only her physical presence but also embodies her spirit as an empowered woman who challenged societal norms. As we admire this remarkable image from The Stapleton Collection, we are reminded of Clara Barton's indelible legacy—a testament to compassion, resilience, and unwavering dedication to helping those in need.
