EDITORS COMMENTS
In this colored engraving from 1876, we witness a heartwarming moment between Rutherford B. Hayes and a baby during his presidential campaign in Steubenville, Ohio. The image captures the essence of American politics in the late 19th century, showcasing the connection between a candidate and their constituents. Surrounded by an enthusiastic crowd, Hayes leans down to plant a gentle kiss on the cheek of an adorable baby held by its proud parent. This tender display of affection reveals both Hayes' genuine character and his ability to connect with people on a personal level. As a Republican candidate canvassing through North America, Hayes understood the importance of forging emotional connections with voters. His warm demeanor and approachability made him relatable to individuals from all walks of life – whether they were men or women, young or old. The contemporary coloring adds vibrancy to this historic scene, bringing it to life for modern viewers. It serves as a reminder that even amidst intense political campaigns, moments of tenderness can emerge that transcend partisan lines. Presidential campaigns have always been about more than just policies; they are also about building relationships based on trust and empathy. This engraving encapsulates those values perfectly while immortalizing one precious moment in Rutherford B. Hayes' journey towards becoming President of the United States in 1877.
