EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Charles Godfrey Leland, a prominent figure in 19th-century America. Taken between 1855 and 1865 by an unknown photographer, the image showcases Leland's distinctive appearance and character. With his full-length portrait, we get a glimpse into the fashion of the time as he dons traditional clothing and a hat that adds to his charm. Leland was not only known for his unique style but also for his significant contributions as a humorist, folklorist, author, and anthropologist. His work focused on exploring cultural traditions and folklore across different regions of America. As an accomplished writer, Leland delved deep into these subjects with great passion. The photograph is part of the Brady Handy Collection housed at the Library of Congress. Its preservation allows us to appreciate both Leland's physical features - particularly his impressive beard - as well as gain insight into historical fashion trends. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness the essence of life during the mid-19th century. It serves as a reminder of how individuals like Charles Godfrey Leland played pivotal roles in shaping American culture through their intellectual pursuits and dedication to preserving heritage. As we gaze upon this portrait photograph by an unknown artist from Heritage Images, we can't help but be intrigued by Charles Godfrey Leland's enigmatic persona captured within its frame.
