Early photographic view of the front of Robert E. Lee's Arlington House mansion in Arlington, Virginia, c. 1855-1865. Possibly taken during the early days of the Civil War after Union soldiers occupied the property. This might be the earliest surviving photo of the mansion. Attributed to Titian Ramsay Peale.
The place for the most fascinating photographs from history specializing in animating stereoscopic images.
