Daniel E. Sickles is best known for the leg he lost at Gettysburg, where he commanded the Union III Corps and pushed his line forward into the Peach Orchard on July 2, 1863, a move that drew Confederate fire and left him wounded. This carte de visite, a small albumen card portrait of the kind widely sold during the Civil War, shows him as a Union brigadier general. Sickles was a former New York politician and congressman whose career continued long after the war, and his later notoriety stemmed from killing Philip Barton Key in 1859 in a scandal that made national news. Cards like this one were collected in albums by families and admirers, so the portrait reflects how public figures were presented to a wide audience.
