EDITORS COMMENTS
This close-up print showcases the iconic face of Benjamin Franklin, one of the esteemed founding fathers of the United States. Taken on November 17,2015, at the Department of the Treasury's Bureau of Engraving and Printing in Washington, DC, this image captures every intricate detail etched onto a US $100 Federal Reserve Note. With his piercing gaze and distinguished features, Franklin's portrait exudes wisdom and intellect. The fine lines on his forehead speak volumes about his tireless efforts as a statesman, inventor, writer, and philosopher. As an influential figure in American history, he played a pivotal role in shaping the nation we know today. The horizontal composition allows us to fully appreciate every aspect of this remarkable portrayal. From his receding hairline to his furrowed brows and thoughtful expression—each element adds depth to this timeless representation. Photographer Paul J. Richards skillfully captures not only Franklin's likeness but also evokes a sense of reverence for our country's rich heritage. This photograph serves as a reminder that behind every currency note lies an emblematic figure who has left an indelible mark on society. AFP brings us yet another extraordinary visual narrative through their lens—an opportunity for viewers to reflect upon America's past while contemplating its future aspirations inspired by great men like Benjamin Franklin.
