Confederate Soldiers Posing With Cannons and Rubble in the Interior of Fort Sumter (1861)



"Salient with North-west Casemates, Fort Sumter." A group of Confederate soldiers posing with cannons and rubble in the interior of Fort Sumter shortly after its surrender by Union forces, April 1861. A rare example of a stereoscopic image taken of non-POW Confederates in the field. The second photograph is a CDV version that is much sharper in its details. By Osborn & Durbec.
