EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases James S. Negley, a prominent figure in 19th-century America. Negley, hailing from Pennsylvania, had an illustrious career as a military officer, farmer, and politician between the years 1865 and 1880. The image captures Negley's distinguished appearance with his well-groomed beard and commanding presence. As an officer in the Union Army during the Civil War, he played a crucial role in preserving the unity of the country during this tumultuous period. Beyond his military service, Negley was also known for his involvement in politics. Serving as a representative from Pennsylvania, he actively participated in shaping political discourse and policies of that era. The photograph is part of the Brady Handy Collection held at the Library of Congress. Although its creator remains unknown, it stands as a testament to Negley's significant contributions to American history. This portrait offers us a glimpse into not only Negley's professional life but also his personal character. It serves as a reminder of the dedication and sacrifices made by individuals like him who helped shape our nation during one of its most challenging times. As we admire this remarkable piece of heritage artistry captured on glass negatives over 150 years ago, let us reflect upon the legacy left behind by men such as James S. Negley – soldiers turned politicians who dedicated their lives to serving their country with honor and distinction.
