Jefferson Davis CDV Published by E. Anthony

Description

Albumen carte de visite portrait of Jefferson Davis, shown standing in formal civilian attire with bow tie and dark coat. Davis appears in profile-three-quarter view beside a studio support, presenting a composed and dignified likeness typical of mid-19th century portraiture.

Jefferson Davis served as President of the Confederate States of America from 1861 to 1865, making his likeness one of the most widely circulated images connected to the American Civil War.

The reverse bears the publisher’s imprint:

“Published by E. Anthony, 501 Broadway, New York, from Photographic Negative, from Brady’s National Portrait Gallery.”

This imprint indicates the image was derived from the celebrated Brady photographic series documenting notable American political and military figures of the era.
