Engraved portrait of General George Armstrong Custer, published in the late 19th century, based on an original photograph by Mathew Brady. The finely executed steel engraving is by J. Rogers and presents Custer in military dress, with hand resting on a sword and his officer's cap, his expression composed and resolute. Beneath the image appears a printed facsimile of Custer’s signature, “G. A. Custer,” and the credit line “From a Photograph by Brady.”

The oval vignette is professionally double-matted and housed in a period-style hardwood frame measuring approximately 14 ½ x 12 ½ inches. The image itself, printed on heavy stock, shows a mild water stain extending upward from the lower left portion but remains strong in tone and detail.

Portraits of Custer taken by Brady during the Civil War are among the most enduring and widely disseminated likenesses of the controversial general. This engraving captures the visual legacy that shaped Custer’s public image during his lifetime and after his death at the Battle of Little Bighorn. An evocative display piece, suitable for collectors of Civil War memorabilia and 19th-century American portraiture.
