EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph on chine collé, titled "Levi Woodbury, Secretary of Treasury, 1837," is a masterpiece by the renowned German artist, Charles Fenderich. Created in the 19th century, this black and white portrait depicts Woodbury, an accomplished attorney and politician, in head and shoulders format. The jurist served as the Secretary of the Treasury under President Martin Van Buren, making him a significant figure in American political history. Fenderich's depiction of Woodbury is a testament to the artist's skillful use of lithotint and chine collé techniques. The intricate lettering and textured background add depth and dimension to the portrait, enhancing the overall visual appeal. The image exudes a sense of gravitas, reflecting Woodbury's prominent role in shaping the country's economic policies during a pivotal period in American history. This evocative portrait is a must-see for anyone interested in the arts, history, or politics. It is currently on exhibit at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it adds to the rich cultural heritage and diverse collection of art and artifacts. The portrait is a reminder of the important role that art plays in preserving and celebrating the past, as well as providing insights into the people and events that have shaped our world.
