EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases General James Blair Steedman, a prominent figure during the American Civil War. Taken between 1855 and 1865 by an unknown photographer, this portrait exudes strength and determination. General Steedman was not only a soldier but also a lawyer and printer, embodying the multifaceted nature of individuals in that era. His military uniform signifies his dedication to serving his country during one of its most tumultuous periods. The image captures Steedman's stern expression, reflecting the weight of responsibility he carried as a general in the Union Army. His attire reflects the fashion trends of the time, with meticulous attention to detail evident in every aspect of his clothing. Preserved within glass negatives from the mid-19th century, this photograph is now part of the Brady Handy Collection housed at the Library of Congress. Its inclusion in this collection highlights its historical significance and contribution to our understanding of that era. Through this still image, we catch a glimpse into General Steedman's character - resolute yet enigmatic. It serves as a reminder of those who fought bravely for their beliefs during one of America's darkest chapters. As we admire this portrait today, it stands as both an artistic representation and an important historical artifact capturing General James Blair Steedman's legacy as a distinguished officer in service to his country.
