Online Exhibits > Civil War Photographs by George Barnard

 

FORT SUMTER, LOOKING EAST
1865 or 1866

The bombardment of Fort Sumter by Southern artillery in April of 1861 was the first battle of the Civil War. It is thus fitting that a photograph of the recaptured fort should conclude a visual study of the conflict.
