Image description

Confederate militiamen in recently-issued uniforms, posing around an M.1829 32-pounder seacoast gun mounted atop a barbette-carriage in a sandbagged emplacement, somewhere along the western shorelines of Pensacola Bay, Florida, ca. March 1861. This scene was most probably photographed and subsequently published as a salted paper photo-print by J. D. [Jay Dearborn] Edwards, a photographer from New Orleans, and may well have been included among a series of 39 such prints offered for sale in that Louisiana city as of May 15, 1861. The original collodion glass-negative is apparently lost, but a print was republished years afterward on Pages 16-17 of Volume 6: The Navies in the Photographic History of the Civil War (New York: Review of Reviews, 1911), edited by Francis T. Miller and Robert S. Lanier. This latter version has been melded together into a single image, then repaired and cleaned up by Battlefields in Motion, Ltd.
