"Culinary art in Camp, 43rd Reg. N.Y. Volunteers." Photo of Union Army cooks of the 43rd New York Infantry Regiment preparing a meal in Camp Griffin in Lewinsville, Virginia, c. 1861-1862. Taken by photographer Charles Bierstadt and originally published as a stereoview. The lattice fence seen in the background of this looks quite similar to the one in the photo of the "hotel" building at Camp Griffin taken by George Houghton, so I surmise this kitchen scene might have been taken nearby, maybe even on the same property.
The place for the most fascinating photographs from history specializing in animating stereoscopic images.
