The funeral procession that moved through New York on April 25, 1865, honored a president who had been shot in Washington only days earlier, and this view records the city's mourning on a scale few other events had matched. Crowds lined the avenues as the cortege passed, and the sheer number of onlookers is part of what makes the scene worth studying. The print was issued by E. & H.T. Anthony & Co., a firm that sold photographs and stereoscopic views to a public eager for images of the war and its aftermath. Its title and publisher are a useful reminder that such pictures were both records of grief and commercial goods.
