A pair of stereoviews capturing the solemn occasion of President Abraham Lincoln's funeral procession in New York City on April 25, 1865. These remarkable images, published by Anthony, provide an intimate view of the immense crowds and the ceremonial displays of mourning that marked this tragic moment in American history. One view highlights a regiment of artillery passing in formation, while the other showcases the grand, draped funeral carriage surrounded by mourners.

The reverse of each stereoview is inscribed with detailed descriptions of the event, further emphasizing their historical significance. A rare and important glimpse into the national mourning and the visual culture of the Civil War era.
