[edit] Best photograph?

Can anyone suggest and give a link to his best photograph? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.35.10.19 (talk) 17:53, 29 May 2006

I don't think he has a single best-known photo; it's even a little fuzzy which ones were his and which were taken by people he employed, under his direction. The 'Dead of Antietam' exhibit is mentioned in most descriptions of his work, but I think that's more to do with its historical value, signalling a change from idealized paintings of war to stark photos of actual corpses. grendel|khan 15:59, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

There are many famous photographs that he personally took. His MOST famous is the cooper union photograph of President Abraham Lincoln which Lincoln claimed made him president.--Octavian history (talk) 07:38, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
