Mathew Brady (1823-1896) was a prolific photographer of the nineteenth century who created a visual documentation of the American Civil War. During the war period (1861-1865), Brady and his associates traveled throughout the eastern United States and captured the effects of war through photographs of soldiers, battlefields, and the ruins and bodies that they left behind. Additionally, Brady kept studios in Washington, DC and New York City where he photographed many influential politicians and war heroes of the time.
This collection includes a selection of 1200 of Brady's photographs (1100 with 10 copies each and 100 with only one copy) from the US National Archives series: Mathew Brady Photographs of Civil War-Era Personalities and Scenes, compiled 1921 - 1940, documenting the period 1860 - 1865.
