"""The daguerreotypes below are from the studio of Matthew Brady, one of the most celebrated 19th century American photographers, best known for his portraits of celebrities and his documentation of the American Civil War which earned him the title of ""father of photojournalism"". The Library of Congress received the majority of the Brady daguerreotypes as a gift from the Army War College in 1920.   (via Decayed Daguerreotypes
