The record names Adley H. Gladden, who died in 1862, and the caption card carries no date for the photograph itself, so the sitting's exact timing is unknown. The print belongs to the Library of Congress's Civil War Photograph Collection, a group of images that includes many portraits of soldiers, officers, and other men and women caught up in the war. Portraits from these years were often made in studios and sold or traded as small paper cards, so a surviving print like this one offers a direct link to the way families and comrades kept the faces of those who died early in the conflict.
