c1880-This is a very impressive portrait of Inspector General of the United States, Brigadier General D.B. Sackett. Like all the movers and shakers of the period, this veteran of the Civil War sat for famed photographer Mathew Brady on several occasions, so it is quite possible that this photo was taken during one of those sittings in the General’s later years. The framed and mounted picture measures 26”x 32”, has some age staining and is mounted on a wood backing. The frame is a little nicked up, but this is still a very collectable piece of photographic as well as Civil War history. HKA#64286
