EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures William Evarts, a prominent American politician and lawyer, between the years 1865 and 1880. The creator of this intriguing portrait remains unknown. Evarts held several significant roles during his career, including serving as the US Attorney General and being part of the legal team prosecuting Jefferson Davis for treason. He also acted as counsel for U. S. President Andrew Johnson during his impeachment trial and represented the United States in Geneva, Switzerland before an arbitration tribunal on the Alabama claims. In this image, Evarts exudes an air of authority and confidence befitting his esteemed profession. Dressed in formal attire typical of the 19th century, he stands with poise against a plain backdrop. The chain around his neck adds a touch of elegance to his appearance. The photograph is part of the Brady Handy Collection housed at the Library of Congress Congressional Library. It is one among many portraits taken by Mathew B. Brady or photographers associated with him during that era. Evarts' contribution to American politics and law cannot be overstated, making this portrait all the more significant as it immortalizes a man who played key roles in some pivotal moments in US history.
