Wife and biographer (1842–1933) of ill-fated General George Armstrong Custer. Very rare original unsigned full-length cabinet portrait, 4.25 x 6.5, circa 1880, no back stamp, depicting the elegantly dressed Custer standing next to a fur-covered chair. In fine condition, with trivial soiling to the borders and some light silvering to darker areas of the image, visible only at an angle. A distinguished portrait of Custer’s wife, who would spend the rest of her life preserving her husband’s memory.
