EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant lithograph captures the late President Andrew Johnson in his final moments on his deathbed. Taken in Greenville, Tennessee on July 31,1875, this image portrays a somber scene that reflects the end of an era for the United States. Andrew Johnson served as the 17th President of the United States and was known for his tumultuous presidency during the Reconstruction period following the Civil War. As a member of the Democratic Party from Tennessee, he faced numerous challenges and controversies throughout his time in office. In this print by Currier & Ives, we see Johnson surrounded by men and women who are undoubtedly mourning their leader's passing. The artist has captured a sense of solemnity and respect through delicate brushstrokes and careful attention to detail. The composition showcases Johnson lying peacefully on his deathbed while those around him gather to pay their last respects. The emotional weight is palpable as friends and supporters bid farewell to a man who played a significant role in shaping America's history. This lithograph serves as both a historical document and a tribute to one of America's most complex presidents. It allows us to reflect upon Johnson's legacy while also reminding us of our nation's capacity for growth, change, and unity even amidst challenging times.
