EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of Millard Fillmore, the 13th President of the United States. Taken on January 4,1870, by Upson & Simson, this photograph showcases Fillmore's distinguished appearance and commanding presence. As we gaze into his eyes, there is a sense of suspicion and distrust that emanates from his expression. It reflects the complex political landscape of America during the 19th century. A man deeply rooted in education and scientific institutions, Fillmore's handwriting reveals his meticulous attention to detail and intellectual prowess. The title "Portrait of Millard Fillmore" reminds us of his significant role as a politician who held power during a transformative era in American history. His presidency marked by controversial decisions such as signing the Compromise of 1850 which temporarily eased tensions between pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions. This image serves as a reminder not only of Fillmore's individual legacy but also represents an important chapter in our nation's heritage. Preserved within the Smithsonian Institution Archive, it symbolizes our country's commitment to preserving its rich history for future generations. Upson & Simson have masterfully captured both the physical likeness and underlying complexities that defined Millard Fillmore’s life. This print stands as a testament to their skillful artistry while offering viewers an intimate glimpse into one man’s journey through politics amidst a changing nation.
