EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of William Lawrence, a prominent lawyer, politician, and military officer from Ohio. Taken between 1865 and 1880 by an unknown photographer, this portrait captures Lawrence's commanding presence with his full beard and intense gaze. As a Colonel of the 84th Ohio Infantry Regiment during the American Civil War, Lawrence played a significant role in shaping history. He was influential in attempting to impeach President Andrew Johnson and was instrumental in creating the United States Department of Justice. Additionally, he contributed to the establishment of the American Red Cross and played a key role in ratifying the Geneva Convention. Lawrence's commitment to public service is evident through his political career as well. A respected lawmaker and legislator, he dedicated himself to serving his country at both state and national levels. This image serves as a testament to his dedication towards upholding justice, law enforcement, humanitarian efforts, and overall nation-building. Preserved within the Library of Congress' Brady Handy Collection glass negatives from 1860-1880s era America, this photograph provides us with an intimate glimpse into one man's journey through turbulent times. It stands as a reminder of those who fought for their beliefs during one of America's most transformative periods—the nineteenth century—leaving behind an enduring legacy that continues to shape our nation today.
