EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print captures the enigmatic figure of Jeremiah Black, a prominent lawyer and politician in 19th century America. The photograph, taken between 1855 and 1865 by an unknown creator, showcases Black's commanding presence and distinguished demeanor. Jeremiah Sullivan Black was not only a skilled attorney but also served as Chief Justice of Pennsylvania's Supreme Court. His influence extended to the political arena where he held positions such as Secretary of State under President James Buchanan. A man of great intellect and eloquence, Black played a significant role in shaping American politics during this transformative era. The image itself is a testament to the artistry of Mathew B. Brady, one of the most renowned photographers of his time. Through his lens, Brady captured the essence of Black's character with remarkable clarity. Preserved within the Congressional Library's collection, this glass negative print offers us a glimpse into history—a moment frozen in time that allows us to reflect on the legacy left behind by influential figures like Jeremiah Black. As we study this portrait photograph today, we are reminded not only of his legal prowess but also his impact on shaping our nation's political landscape. This striking image serves as a reminder that even though time may pass, these powerful individuals continue to inspire generations with their contributions to society.
