William Rehnquist Supreme Court oversized color photograph signed by all nine justices, dressed in robes. Original satin-finish photograph affixed to its original mount, signed below on the mount in ink by John Paul Stevens, Byron R. White, William H. Rehnquist, Harry A. Blackmun, Sandra Day OâConnor, David Souter, Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy, and Clarence Thomas. Taken circa 1991 to 1993, after Clarence Thomas joined the Court and before the retirement of Byron White. In fine condition. The entire piece measures 19 inches by 16 inches. The Rehnquist Court refers to the Supreme Court of the United States from 1986 to 2005, when William Rehnquist served as Chief Justice of the United States. Rehnquist succeeded Warren Burger as Chief Justice after the latterâs retirement, and Rehnquist served as Chief Justice until his death in 2005, at which point John Roberts was nominated and confirmed as Rehnquistâs replacement. The Rehnquist Court is generally considered to be more conservative than the preceding Burger Court and Warren Court. According to Jeffrey Rosen, Rehnquist combined an amiable nature with great organizational skill, and he âled a Court that put the brakes on some of the excesses of the Earl Warren era while keeping pace with the sentiments of a majority of the country.â Biographer John Jenkins argued that Rehnquist politicized the Supreme Court and moved the court and the country to the right. Through its rulings, the Rehnquist Court often promoted a policy of New Federalism in which more power was given to the states at the expense of the federal government. The Rehnquist Court was also notable for its stability, as the same nine justices served together from 1994 to 2005, one of the longest such stretches in Supreme Court history.…
