The Seceding Mississippi Delegation in Congress

Winslow Homer

Cleveland Museum of Art

Newspaper clipping with a drawing of seven men. The drawing depicts the men with neutral expressions, wearing nineteenth century suits with collared white shirts. The men are arranged with one centered on top, three across the middle, and three on the bottom. The top man has dark curly hair. The man on the left of the top row has a receding hairline and the man on the right has slicked back hair. The middle row consists, from left to right, of a man with a beard, a man with curly hair centered, and a man with slicked back hair. The bottom row consists, from left to right, of a man with a long beard and long hair on the sides that curl under, a man with a beard and mustache, and a man with straight hair parted in the center. The background resembles a piece of aged paper and is shaded behind the head of each man. Newspaper text surrounds the drawing at the top and illegible text is underneath the drawing.
