EDITORS COMMENTS
In this wood engraving from the 19th century, we find the candidates for the Republican presidential nomination of 1860, assembled in Chicago. The group includes John C. Fremont, with his stern, determined expression; Jesse W. S. Pennington, looking thoughtful and contemplative; John C. Frémont's running mate, William H. Seward, with his piercing gaze; and the eventual nominee, Abraham Lincoln, whose calm and serious demeanor shines through. The other candidates in the group are John C. Bates, Edward Bates, John Bell, John M. Clay, John A. McLean, and Salmon P. Chase. Each man's face tells a story, reflecting the intensity and importance of the moment. The age and diversity of the group underscores the significance of the Republican Party's emergence as a major political force in American politics. The engraving was produced in 1860, a pivotal year in American history, as the country was on the brink of the Civil War. The Republican Party's platform, which included opposition to the expansion of slavery, resonated with many Americans and paved the way for Lincoln's election and the preservation of the Union. This striking image, now housed in the National Portrait Gallery in Washington D.C., offers a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the rich history of American politics. The faces of these men, frozen in time, invite us to reflect on the complexities of the political process and the enduring importance of the presidency in shaping the course of our nation.
