Title: Reconnoisance [sic] of the Enemies position in front of Fairfax Ct. House Oct. 18th 1861

Date Created/Published: 1861 October 18.
Notes:
Signed lower right: Alfred R. Waud.
Title inscribed below image.
Some historian had said that the figure on the white horse is Waud, but this seems unlikely as Brady's photograph has Waud with a full beard and this figure is clean shaven. It looks more like a cleric.
