Full-length portrait of Harriet Tubman, seated in a chair, facing front, likely photographed in Auburn, New York, 1911. Harriet Tubman was an American abolitionist, humanitarian, and an armed scout and spy for the United States Army during the American Civil War. She is best known for her work as a conductor on the Underground Railroad, helping to lead hundreds of enslaved people to freedom. Tubman is an important figure in American history and has been depicted in many artworks, including paintings, sculptures, and photographs. This portrait of the great abolitionist seated in a chair was taken at the Harriet Tubman Home for the Aged, now a significant historical site located at 180 South St. in Auburn, NY. Harriet Tubman purchased the property in 1896 with the vision of creating a nursing home for the poor and elderly in her community. With the help of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, the facility opened its doors to patients in 1908. The home operated until the early 1920s, and Tubman herself became a patient there until her death in 1913. After it closed, the buildings fell into severe disrepair until the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church rebuilt one structure and opened it to the public as a museum in 1953. The property became part of the Harriet Tubman National Historical Park in 2017, a partnership park between the National Park Service and the Harriet Tubman Home, Inc. Today, the Harriet Tubman Home for the Aged stands as a testament to Tubman’s humanitarian vision and her unwavering commitment to caring for the old and poor in her community.
