The record does not name the sitter of this sepia portrait of a bearded man in a heavy coat, so any link to Ford's theater rests on the setting rather than the person. The Washington, D.C., theater is best known as the site where President Abraham Lincoln was shot in April 1865, and it is now preserved as part of the National Park Service. Sepia tones were common in many 19th-century photographic processes, and portraits from that era were often kept as family keepsakes, which makes images like this one a useful glimpse of the people who lived through those years.
