IMAGE number: BMS869215
Image title: New York artillerymen with a heavy gun in Fort Corcoran, spring 1862 (b/w photo)
Photographer: American Photographer, (19th century) / American
Location: Private Collection
Medium: black and white photograph
Date: 1862 AD (C19th AD)

Image description: Seven Union artillerymen and two officers of the 4th New York Heavy Artillery Regiment posing in the spring of 1862 with a 24-pounder gun in Fort Corcoran, an earthen field-fortification erected atop Arlington Heights, Virginia, to help defend Washington, D. C. This is an M.1845 gun, mounted atop a front-pintle barbette-carriage; note the gunner at left is holding a container clearly labeled pass box, while the officer seated casually on the edge of the gun-platform is believed to be Capt. Thomas D. Sears. Examples of a grapeshot, round-shot, and canister-shell are displayed on the ground beside him. This image has been enhanced by combining its original stereographic pair of wet-collodion glass negatives into a single extra-wide modern photograph, as well as being cleaned up and repaired
