EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful photograph captures a heartwarming moment in the lives of the Garfield family, taken on March 13, 1882. The image features James Garfield, the 20th President of the United States, seated in a comfortable chair with his wife, Lucretia, and their children, Irvin and Abram, gathered around him. The family's affectionate expressions and close proximity to one another convey a sense of love, happiness, and contentment. James Garfield, a native of Moreland Hills, Ohio, served as a Union Army officer during the Civil War before entering politics. He was elected to the House of Representatives in 1862 and later to the Senate in 1881. Garfield's presidency was cut tragically short when he was assassinated by Charles J. Guiteau just six and a half months after taking office. Despite the sadness that would come to the Garfield family, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the love and joy that existed within their family unit at that moment in time. The image also offers a glimpse into the lives of a presidential family during the late 19th century, providing a historical perspective that resonates with viewers even today.
