This portrait of General George Armstrong Custer was captured by Brady's National Photographic Portrait Galleries between 1860 and 1876. The image showcases Custer in profile, his gaze directed to the left, and his long hair partially pulled back. This portrait, currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, is a compelling visual record of a prominent figure in American military history, offering a glimpse into the physical appearance of General Custer during his active service. The image is a carte de visite, a popular format for photographs in the 19th century.
