Shown in profile, facing left, this head-and-shoulders likeness captures Patrick Ronayne Cleburne years before the Civil War made him known. Born in Ireland in 1828, Cleburne settled in Arkansas, practiced law, and rose to major general in the Confederate army, earning the nickname "Stonewall of the West." The print was issued in 1860 by E. & H.T. Anthony, a New York firm known for photographic supplies and publications, and it is numbered 5153 in the Civil War Photograph Collection. Cleburne was killed at the Battle of Franklin, Tennessee, in November 1864.
