The sesquicentennial of the American Civil War is being celebrated by museums, historical organizations, and of course, the Smithsonian Institution. Along with lectures, talks, and so on, they are also working on a few new digital collections. One such collection is the Liljenquist Family Collection, which contains over 700 ambrotype and tintype photographs. This remarkable collection of photographs highlights both Union and Confederate soldiers during the war, and the family sought out images to represent the impact of this conflict. Currently, over 600 of these images are available here, and they include African Americans in uniform, portraits of entire families, and a Lincoln campaign button. Visitors to the site can browse through the images at their leisure, or view them as a list, slideshow, or in a gallery format. Also, users can download each image and look over the germane provenance and metadata details for each item.
