Bridge at Strawberry Plains, 20 miles northeast of Knoxville; camera on tripod at right] [1864?] 1 negative (2 plates) : glass, stereograph, wet collodion. Notes: Title from Milhollen and Mugridge. Two plates form left (LC-B811-2665A) and right (LC-B811-2665B) halves of a stereograph pair. Corresponding print is in LOT 4177. Civil War photographs, 1861-1865 / compiled by Hirst D. Milhollen and Donald H. Mugridge, Washington, D.C. : Library of Congress, 1977. No. 0687 Photograph of the War in the West. These photographs are of the Siege of Knoxville, November-December 1863. The difficult strategic situation of the Federal armies after Chicamauga enabled Bragg to detach a force under Longstreet which aimed to drive Burnside out of East Tennessee and did shut him up in Knoxville, which he defended successfully. These views, taken after Longstreet's withdrawal on December 3, include one of Strawberry Plains, which was on his line of retreat. Here we have part of an army record; Barnard was photographer of the chief engineer's office, Military Division of the Mississippi, and his views were transmitted with the report of the chief engineer of Burnside's army, April 11, 1864.
