http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/52043869

Informal group portrait. Grant is standing at left, facing the other men, who are seated, scattered along a cliff to Grant's right. The cliff is surrounded by trees and there is a wooden building in the distance. Emulsion-paper print from a Brady negative, late-19th or early-20th century. May have been produced for purchase as souvenir. Subjects are, left to right: Grant; Gen. J.A. Rawlins (seated, with back against tree); Gen. Joseph Dana Webster behind him; Col. Clark B. Lagow leaning against tree; and Col. William S. Hillyer in right foreground; an orderly seated at rear. Identical to photograph #11 in this collection; however, this print is lighter and more faded. This print is also exhibiting mirroring.
