"Brady's Album Gallery" refers to a famous series of Civil War photographs, primarily by Mathew Brady and his associates (like Alexander Gardner), published as collectible, card-sized prints (cartes de visite) in the 1860s, documenting battlefields (Antietam, Yorktown), camp life, and key figures like Lincoln and Grant, bringing the harsh reality of the war to the public. These iconic images, featuring portraits of generals and stark aftermaths of battles, formed albums displayed in parlors, becoming a vital record of the conflict. [jet][ph:L]
