EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "General Robert E. Lee, 1865" captures the essence of a significant historical figure during a pivotal moment in American history. Created by Mathew Brady, a renowned photographer of the 19th century, this albumen silver print from a glass negative showcases General Robert E. Lee at the end of the American Civil War. In this portrait, General Lee exudes an air of dignity and resilience as he stands tall in his military uniform. His piercing gaze reflects both determination and weariness after years of leading Confederate forces against Union troops. The photograph was taken in Richmond, Virginia – a city that holds great significance to both Lee's military career and the Confederacy. Mathew Brady's expertise shines through in capturing not only General Lee's physical features but also his character and presence on film. This image serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers on both sides during one of America's most tumultuous periods. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print is part of our nation's rich heritage art collection. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon our country's past while honoring those who fought for their respective causes during times of conflict.
