The Famous Civil War Photograph, “Lincoln at Antietam” — Albumen Print by Alexander Gardner Measures 9″ x 6.75″
One of the most iconic photographs of Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War, period albumen print entitled “Lincoln at Antietam”, taken by Alexander Gardner who included it in his book “Photographic Sketch Book of the Civil War”. Taken on 3 October 1862, two weeks after the Union victory at Antietam, President Lincoln here visits Commanding General George McClellan’s campsite at Antietam, feeling that a personal visit was required to convince the General to seize the moment and pursue General Robert E. Lee’s retreating army. McClellan stalled however, and Lincoln would remove him from his command a month later. McClellan, in turn, would then run against Lincoln for the 1864 Presidential election.
In this photo, Lincoln faces McClellan – a head taller than the General, with the following officers appearing from left to right: Colonel Delos B. Sacket, Captain George Monteith, Lieutenant Colonel Nelson B. Sweitzer, General George W. Morell, Colonel Alexander S. Webb, General George B.
