This is an original Civil War era CDV image of Civil War Brevet Brigadier General Luke Lyman. Lyman was born in Northampton, Massachusetts on November 1, 1824. He served as a Lieutenant Colonel in the 27th, Massachusetts infantry. He received his promotion to brevet Brigadier General on March 13, 1865, for his "gallant and meritorious services during the war." When we say he is a "Brevet" Brigadier General this means that because of his service to the country he was awarded the rank as an honor. This is a bust view of the general in a stately pose. The CDV images were made by applying a thin paper photo image of the famous person of the day to a heavier paper card. This made the image more durable and easier to display and also added uniformity to the size. The overall size of a CDV image is approximately 2.5 inches by 4 inches in size. On the back of the card, it has the photographer Mark of the J.D. Wells firm in Northampton, Massachusetts. This is a solid original Civil War Union CDV image.
