[Portrait of a Man], ca. 1857, Salted paper print from glass negative, Mount: 11 3/16 in. × 9 1/8 in. (28.4 × 23.2 cm), Photographs, Mathew B. Brady (American, born Ireland, 1823?–1896 New York), The identity of this soberly dressed man is unknown, but Brady's careful artistry suggests a man of intellect and faith. In the darkly lit space of the studio it is the young man's visage--and by extension, his mind--that is the focus of the picture, not stylish clothing or studio decor
