CDV with E. & H. T. Anthony, New York backmark. A career officer-turned-farmer, Richardson answered his country's call in 1861 and quickly rose through the officer corps to become a major general commanding a division. This rising Union star, however, was mortally wounded at Antietam on September 17, 1862 and died before year's end. Fine condition.
