The Fifteenth Amendment, ratified on February 3, 1870, barred governments from denying a citizen the right to vote on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. This print marks a celebration held on May 19, 1870, one of many public gatherings that followed ratification. The gallery files it under Abraham Lincoln, a link that reflects how many Americans of the period saw the amendment as completing the work begun with emancipation.
