EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection captures a significant moment in American history - the seceding South Carolina delegation. Taken by renowned photographer Mathew B. Brady, this wood engraving showcases the delegates who played a pivotal role in precipitating a chain of events that led to the outbreak of the Civil War. The image depicts the South Carolina delegation, photographed shortly after their state became the first to leave the Union on December 22,1860. With dimensions measuring 15 3/8 by 10 1/2 inches (39 x 26.7 cm), this historic print transports us back to a time when Abraham Lincoln's election as president had cast uncertainty over the nation. In November of that year, these state delegates voted decisively to dissolve federal ties and assert their independence from the United States government. Their bold action set in motion a series of events that would forever alter American history. Born in Ireland but based in New York, Mathew B. Brady skillfully captured this poignant moment through his lens, immortalizing it for generations to come. This photograph serves as an enduring reminder of how political divisions can lead to profound consequences and shape nations' destinies. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are reminded of both our past struggles and our ongoing pursuit for unity amidst diversity – lessons that remain relevant even today.
