American Battleground: Photographs of the Civil War, 1861-1865
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at Cantor Arts Center
(see times)
Photography was invented in France more than two decades before the Civil War erupted in America. By the 1860s, visual culture and fine art in the United States were profoundly affected by the new medium, and the Civil War rapidly became the first conflict thoroughly documented by photographers. This installation features photographs, primarily landscape views, from the Cantor's permanent collection
