Additional updates to this introduction were made as recently as May 2021. Thomas did the research, selection, and arrangement for this list and wrote these introductory remarks when this list was revised in 1999. In addition, nearly all of our images of Confederates illustrate high-ranking officials and personnel. We have very few portraits of lower ranking individuals and much of our Civil War holdings highlight high-ranking military personnel. Separate inquiries about other Civil War photography should be as specific as possible listing names, places, events, and other details.
CIVIL WAR HOSPITAL TENTS SERIES
A list of selected fully digitized series are included below. Many photographs of the Civil War held by the National Archives are not listed here. Names of photographers or artists and dates of items have been given when available, and an index to photographers follows the list. Any item not identified as an artwork is a photograph. Photographs of artworks have also been included in the list. Items in the first two parts are arranged under subheadings by date, with undated items at the end of each subheading. Photographs included in this select list have been organized under one of four main headings: activities, places, portraits, and Lincoln's assassination. Brady collection (Series Identifier 111-B), purchased for $27,840 by the War Department in 18, photographs from the Quartermaster's Department of the Corps of Engineers, and photographs from private citizens donated to the War Department. The records include photographs from the Mathew B. Most are part of the Records of the Office of the Chief Signal Officer (Record Group 111) and Records of the War Department General and Special Staffs (Record Group 165).
The pictures listed in this select list of photographs are in the Still Picture Branch of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). Timothy O'Sullivan, James Gardner, and Egbert Guy Fox were also employed by Brady during the conflict. Gibson at different times managed Brady's Washington studio.
Although Brady himself actually may have taken only a few photographs of the war, he employed many of the other well-known photographers before and during the war. Brady is almost a synonym for Civil War photography. Because wet-plate collodion negatives required from 5 to 20 seconds exposure, there are no action photographs of the war. During the war, dozens of photographers-both as private individuals and as employees of the Confederate and Union Governments-photographed civilians and civilian activities military personnel, equipment, and activities and the locations and aftermaths of battles. The Civil War was the first large and prolonged conflict recorded by photography. View in National Archives Catalog Introduction
