CIVIL WAR GENERAL GEORGE ARMSTRONG CUSTER CARTE DE VISITE 1863 - $30K APR W/COA
ITEM DESCRIPTION:
Presenting a distinguished Carte de Visite Portrait capturing the likeness of George Armstrong Custer, a revered figure in United States military history. Taken on October 8th, 1863, this evocative photograph immortalizes Custer, a notable United States Army officer and cavalry commander who played significant roles in both the American Civil War and the American Indian Wars.
Custer's legacy is forever intertwined with the fateful events of June 25, 1876, during the Battle of the Little Bighorn in Montana Territory. Leading the 7th Cavalry Regiment into battle against a coalition of Native American tribes, Custer met his tragic demise, along with every soldier under his command, in what became famously known as "Custer's Last Stand." This pivotal moment in history continues to resonate as a symbol of bravery, sacrifice, and the complexities of westward expansion in the United States.
Adding to the historical significance of this portrait is the presence of the E. & H. T. Anthony & Company logo on the back—a testament to the photograph's provenance and the esteemed legacy of one of the largest suppliers and distributors of photographic supplies in the 19th century. Additionally, the association with the Brady's logo, attributed to Matthew Brady, underscores the portrait's connection to a renowned figure in American photography. Brady, often referred to as "Mr. Lincoln's cameraman," achieved renown for his pioneering work in documenting the American Civil War, immortalizing key figures and pivotal moments in photographic history.
This Carte de Visite Portrait stands as a tangible link to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the life and times of George Armstrong Custer—a man whose actions and legacy continue to fascinate and inspire generations of historians, scholars, and enthusiasts alike. As a cherished artifact of American history, this portrait serves as a poignant reminder of the individuals and events that have shaped the fabric of our nation.
