EDITORS COMMENTS
This color engraving from 1866 depicts a significant moment in American history - the first reading of the Emancipation Proclamation before Abraham Lincoln's cabinet in 1862. The image showcases the esteemed individuals who played pivotal roles in this groundbreaking event. Standing proudly from left to right are Salmon P. Chase, Caleb B. Smith, and Montgomery Blair, each representing different aspects of Lincoln's administration. Seated with poise and determination on the other side are Edwin M. Stanton, President Lincoln himself, Gideon Welles, William H. Seward, and Edward Bates. These men were instrumental in shaping America's future as they gathered around to discuss and deliberate upon one of the most influential documents ever written - the Emancipation Proclamation. This proclamation declared that all enslaved people within Confederate territory were to be set free. The image captures not only their physical presence but also their collective commitment towards abolishing slavery and upholding human rights during a time when America was deeply divided by its stance on this issue. As we reflect upon this historic moment through this remarkable print, it serves as a reminder of how far our nation has come in its pursuit of equality and justice for all citizens.
