Lot Description

[CIVIL WAR]. [BRADY, Mathew (1822-1896), photographer]. Albumen photograph of Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson. [April 1863]. 


3 7/8 x 5 5/8 in. albumen photograph on cardstock mount (toning, some surface soiling to print, slight chip along right edge of print, possibly previously removed from larger mount or scrapbook as indicated by uneven surface on back of cardstock).  

Taken in April, 1863, just a few weeks prior to the Battle of Chancellorsville, when Stonewall Jackson was accidentally shot by his own troops and later died of complications from his injury. Although this portrait is the most widely published wartime image of Jackson, often appearing in carte de visite format, this is an extremely rare example in a larger format.
