EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Josiah Bushnell Grinnell, a prominent figure in 19th century America. Grinnell was not only a politician but also an ordained Congregational minister and the founder of the town of Grinnell, Iowa. The image, taken between 1855 and 1865 by an unknown photographer, showcases his dignified presence. Grinnell's commitment to both Christianity and politics is evident in this portrait. As a clergyman, he embodied the values of faith and spirituality that were deeply ingrained in American society during that time. Simultaneously, as a lawmaker and legislator, he played an active role in shaping the political landscape of the United States. The photograph exudes a sense of authority and determination as Grinnell gazes directly at the camera with confidence. His expression suggests a man who is steadfastly dedicated to his beliefs and committed to making positive changes for his country. Preserved within glass negatives from the Brady Handy Collection at the Library of Congress, this historic image serves as a testament to Grinnell's enduring legacy. It offers us a glimpse into an era when religion played a significant role in shaping political discourse. Through this portrait, we are reminded of Josiah Bushnell Grinnell's contributions as both a religious leader and influential politician—a man whose impact on American history should not be forgotten.
