Barnard is best known for his work during the Civil War (1861-65) as the official army photographer for the Military Division of the Mississippi, commanded by Union general William T. Sherman. The resulting images, first published in 1866 as a limited collector's edition entitled Photographic Views of Sherman's Campaign, recorded the aftermath of Sherman's brilliant and devastating march to the sea, haunting depictions of the destroyed landscape and gutted cities left in the wake of the campaign that cut through Georgia and across South Carolina.text/htmlengForms part of the New Georgia Encyclopedia.http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/Forms part of the New Georgia Encyclopedia.Barnard, George N., 1819-1902War photography--GeorgiaUnited States--History--Civil War, 1861-1865--CampaignsAtlanta Campaign, 1864Sherman's March to the SeaGeorge N.
