EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases the distinguished figure of Edward Everett, a prominent American statesman, scholar, and orator. Engraved by John Cheney in the 19th century, this print captures Everett's commanding presence and intellectual prowess. Edward Everett (1794-1865) held various significant positions throughout his illustrious career. He served as the minister to Great Britain from 1841 to 1845, US Secretary of State from 1852 to 1853, Governor of Massachusetts from 1836 to 1840, and President of Harvard University from 1846 to 1849. His multifaceted contributions extended beyond politics; he was also an influential clergyman within the Unitarian faith. The artist Richard Morrell Staigg skillfully reproduced Everett's likeness with remarkable attention to detail. The bust-like portrait emphasizes his dignified expression and noble features while capturing his essence as both a scholar and politician. Everett's legacy is one of great significance in American history. Known for his eloquence as an orator, he delivered a powerful two-hour speech at Gettysburg just before Abraham Lincoln's iconic address during the Civil War. This print serves as a reminder of Everett's lasting impact on American society. Displayed in private collections around the world, this engraving offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate not only its artistic value but also pay homage to one of America's most accomplished figures.
