Carte de Visite Portrait of Andrew Johnson, 17th President of the United States

Carte de Visite Portrait of Andrew Johnson, 17th President of the United States Published by E. & H.T. Anthony from Brady’s National Portrait Gallery, New York
 
A crisp and finely detailed albumen carte de visite of President Andrew Johnson, captured in classic Brady studio pose with his trademark stern gaze and formal attire. Published by the premier firm of E. & H.T. Anthony from a negative in Matthew Brady’s National Portrait Gallery, this example bears the desirable dual Anthony/Brady backmark.
 
The print retains strong contrast, excellent tonal range, and sharp focus throughout, with only a trim at the top edge that does not affect the image or mount integrity.  A highly collectible presidential portrait from one of America’s most celebrated photographic partnerships. Fine condition.
