The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, although it was previously attributed to the renowned photographer Mathew B. Brady. The photograph showcases a group of brave soldiers from the 22nd New York State Militia camped in an undisclosed location during the war. These men, representing the armed forces of their country, stand proudly with their tents as a symbol of resilience and unity. The albumen silver print captures every intricate detail with its stunning clarity and monochromatic palette.
