EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history - the death of Ulysses S. Grant, the 18th President of the United States. Taken at Mount McGregor, New York on July 23,1885, this image showcases contemporary American wood engravings that depict two key figures present during Grant's final moments: attending physician John H. Douglas and Methodist Episcopal minister John Philip Newman. At the top center of the print lies one of Grant's last handwritten messages, dated July 19th. The message bears his name - ULYSSES S. GRANT (1822-1885) - serving as a poignant reminder of his legacy. The photograph also provides glimpses into other aspects surrounding Grant's passing. We see an interior scene with a bed where he spent his final days battling cancer. His profile is visible, adorned with a distinguished beard that became synonymous with his image as both a general and president. Notably, there are references to Christianity throughout this image; highlighting Grant's faith and its significance during this solemn time. The presence of Methodist Episcopal minister John Philip Newman suggests spiritual support offered to him in those challenging moments. Grant's deathbed becomes an emblematic symbol evoking mourning for many Americans who admired their late leader and heroically fought alongside him during the Civil War. Overall, this print serves as both a historical artifact and tribute to one of America's most influential presidents whose impact continues to resonate today.
