Above we show a vital photo of Washington Navy Yard, D.C. Edman Spangler, a "conspirator," in hat and manacled. It was made in 1865 by Gardner, Alexander, 1821-1882.
The illustration documents Photograph of Washington, 1862-1865, the assassination of President Lincoln, April-July 1865. This photograph has background of dark metal, and was presumably taken on the monitors, U.S.S. Montauk and Saugus, where the conspirators were for a time confined.
We have compiled this collection of artwork mainly to serve as a vital educational resource. Contact curator@old-picture.com.
