This portrait of Generals Robert E. Lee and Joseph R. Johnston was taken during Lee's farewell tour in 1869 by Savannah, GA, photographer D.J. Ryan. Each was sixty-three years old. This encounter marked the first time that the two generals had seen each other since the war. Furthermore, this was the first and only time that the men were ever together before the camera. Copies of this photograph were sold to benefit the Ladies Memorial Association and the Lee Monument in Richmond, VA.
