EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Jacob Miller Campbell, a prominent politician, businessman, and officer in the Union Army during the 19th century. The creator of this intriguing portrait remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to Campbell's already fascinating life story. Born in Pennsylvania, Campbell was actively engaged in steamboating on the lower Mississippi River from 1841 to 1847 before embarking on his military career. He served as a first lieutenant and quartermaster of Company G in the Third Regiment of the Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry. Later, he rose to become a colonel in the renowned 54th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry. Campbell's impressive facial hair adds character to his stern expression captured by Mathew Brady or another photographer from that era. This photograph is part of the Brady Handy Collection housed at the Library of Congress. As both a lawmaker and legislator, Campbell played an instrumental role in shaping American politics during his time. His dedication to public service earned him respect and recognition among his peers. Preserved through glass negatives dating between 1865 and 1880, this stereographic card offers us a glimpse into history—a testament to Campbell's significant contributions as well as capturing an essence of America during this transformative period. This Heritage Art piece serves as a reminder not only of one man's remarkable journey but also highlights how photography can immortalize individuals who have left indelible marks on our nation's past.
