Early tintypes, ambrotypes, albumin silver prints, and salt prints by photographers George Barnard, Isaac H. Bonsall, Mathew Brady, Alexander Gardner, James F. Gibson, Timothy H. O’Sullivan, Andrew J. Russell, David B. Woodbury, and others are included in the forty-three works that comprise the exhibition.
