EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: This black and white portrait print captures the distinguished figure of Admiral De Kraft, believed to have been taken between 1855 and 1865. The creator of this remarkable photograph remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to the image. Admiral De Kraft's commanding presence is evident as he stands confidently before the camera. His well-groomed beard and facial hair exude a sense of authority, while his attire reflects the fashion trends of the mid-19th century. Dressed in naval uniform, complete with intricate detailing and insignia denoting his rank, he embodies the essence of a high-ranking officer. The hand gesture captured in this photograph suggests that Admiral De Kraft was known for his expressive nature or perhaps had a penchant for emphasizing important points during conversations. It adds an intriguing element to his already striking persona. Preserved by the Library of Congress' Congressional Library collection, this rare glass negative offers us a glimpse into America's naval history during a time when it was embroiled in conflict - possibly even during the American Civil War. As we admire this portrait today, we are reminded not only of Admiral De Kraft's individuality but also of those who served their country with honor during turbulent times. Through photography's lens, we can appreciate both the artistry involved in capturing such moments as well as its ability to preserve our heritage for generations to come.
