EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Henry Cornelius Burnett, a prominent individual hailing from Kentucky during the tumultuous period between 1855 and 1865. The creator of this powerful portrait remains unknown, yet it beautifully captures Burnett's commanding presence as a soldier, lawyer, and politician. As a colonel in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War, Burnett played an active role in shaping his country's destiny. His full-length image exudes strength and determination while his well-groomed beard adds to his distinguished appearance. This photograph is part of the Brady Handy Collection, preserved by Levin C. Handy at the Library of Congress. Beyond his military exploits, Burnett was also recognized for his legal expertise and political acumen. As an attorney and lawmaker, he left an indelible mark on Kentucky's history. This portrait serves as a reminder of not only one man's journey but also represents countless others who fought valiantly during this transformative era in America. The Heritage Art print allows us to step back into time and witness firsthand the resolve etched onto Burnett's face—a testament to those who shaped our nation amidst great adversity. It stands as a poignant still image that encapsulates both the struggles faced by soldiers like him and their unwavering commitment towards their cause.
