EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful three-quarter length portrait captures Edward J. Roye, a prominent figure in Liberian history, between 1856 and 1858. Roye's striking presence is conveyed through his confident posture and raised hand, as he gazes directly at the viewer. Born in the United States around 1817, Roye made his way to Liberia in 1832 and quickly rose through the ranks of Liberian politics. He served as Speaker of the House of Representatives from 1849 to 1850, and later became Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Liberia. In 1870, Roye was elected President of Liberia, serving until 1871. This portrait, taken by renowned African American photographer Augustus Washington, is a testament to Roye's political and legal achievements. The monochrome image, likely a daguerreotype, showcases the intricacies of Washington's photographic technique, with the subtle tonal variations adding depth and texture to the image. The portrait is framed in a simple yet elegant gold frame, adding a sense of timelessness and importance to the image. Roye's legacy as a political and legal leader in Liberia during the 19th century is an important part of both Liberian and American history. This portrait serves as a reminder of his significant contributions to the country and the African diaspora, and is a valuable addition to any collection of heritage art or historical photography.
