EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving captures the intense moment when William Worth Belknap, an American army officer and politician, appeared before the House Committee on Expenditure on March 1,1876. The image showcases a significant event in American history as Belknap testifies before a delegation of men in the grand chamber of the House of Representatives. Belknap's appearance exudes authority and determination as he stands at a table surrounded by his fellow statesmen. Dressed impeccably in his military uniform, he commands attention with his stern gaze and confident posture. The chandelier hanging above adds an air of elegance to this historic setting. As Secretary of War during President Ulysses S. Grant's administration, Belknap played a crucial role in leading the Union Army during the Civil War. However, this particular moment captured by the artist focuses on his involvement with financial matters within government expenditures. The detailed engraving transports us back to America's vibrant past, providing us with a glimpse into one man's journey through politics and public service during the tumultuous times of Reconstruction-era United States. It serves as a reminder that even esteemed figures like Belknap faced scrutiny and accountability for their actions. Granger Art on Demand has once again preserved an important piece of history through this remarkable print from a contemporary newspaper account.
