Summary

Description

American poet Walt Whitman.

This image was made in 1887 in New York, by photographer George C. Cox. The image is said to have been Whitman's favorite from the Cox photo-session; there were about seven images made at that time. Whitman so admired this image that he even sent a copy to the poet Tennyson in England.

Currently vended commercially, in a format suitable for magazine & book reproduction, by picture library Corbis. The image was apparently originally in the collection of Charles E. Feinberg, and then entered the collection of the New York Museum of Modern Art under curator John Szarkowski. Walt Whitman died in 1892 and the photographer George C. Cox died in 1903. This picture is therefore in the public domain by virtue of the author being dead for more than 100 years.
