1863 Brown Cape Cash Chair Major Over Coat Studio Union Union Army Paymaster
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1863, we are transported back to the heart of the American Civil War. The image showcases Major F. Brown, a Union army paymaster, who stands tall and proud in his military uniform. His stern expression reflects the weighty responsibility he bears as he oversees the financial transactions for his fellow soldiers. The setting is an intimate studio space, with a simple chair serving as Brown's only prop. Dressed in a cape and overcoat that exude authority and elegance, he holds a wooden box containing cash - symbolizing the crucial role of finance in sustaining war efforts. This photograph captures not only an individual but also represents an entire era marked by division and conflict. It offers us a glimpse into the lives of those who fought on behalf of their beliefs during one of America's darkest times. Preserved by The Granger Collection in New York, this print serves as a powerful reminder of our nation's history and pays homage to all those who sacrificed their lives during the Civil War. Whether displayed in homes or educational institutions, it sparks conversations about bravery, sacrifice, and unity - values that continue to shape our society today.
