Summary

Description
English: Black and white bust portrait of Jefferson Davis, apparently extracted from his wedding picture.
Date 1853; published 1907
Source Carl Schurz, Reminiscences, Volume Two, McClure Publishing Co., 1907, facing p. 22
Author unknown photographer; scanned by Bob Burkhardt
Other versions
Varina Howell and Jefferson Davis' wedding picture, 1845

Schurz's book gives the date of the photograph of 1853 which seems incorrect since it is obviously taken from Davis's wedding photo of 1845.
