i was just reading about the assistant to brady the other day...he's the one who staged that photo. the article i just read said someone just found a bunch of the slides/negatives from his work from those years, and they're having a showing. he had a studio in d.c., as did brady. one of the few times i wish i still lived up that way so i could go see the photos.
i have one book here with many civil war photos-the feelings they evoke are hard to describe. maybe poignant is the word? seeing some of the cities, and all the destruction...absolutely unreal.
