A lot featuring eight original carte-de-visite (CDV) photographs of distinguished Civil War generals, published by E. & H.T. Anthony & Co. from negatives by Brady’s National Portrait Gallery. These portraits reflect the dignified and heroic figures that played pivotal roles in shaping the outcome of the war. Notable generals include Kilpatrick, Pleasanton, Brigadier General Strong, and Commodore Foote, among others, each inscribed on the reverse with identifying notes or personalized inscriptions.
These historical photographs offer not only stunning portraiture but also provide a glimpse into the legacy of leadership during one of the most defining periods of American history. Their superb composition, combined with Anthony & Co.'s fine printing and Brady’s renowned studio work, make this an exceptional addition for collectors of Civil War memorabilia or early photographic works.
