(inherited from source) - Description:
- Black and white photograph showing a view of the Richmond, Virginia skyline looking west along train tracks from the Riverfront District; James River and Manchester Bridge at left; Federal Reserve Bank and Sovran Bank visible in distance. __The donor and photographer was trying to recreate views from a facsimile reprint of "Illustrated Guide to Richmond, The Confederate Capital" from the City Intelligencer of 1862. The images in this collection were rejects from the project.<br />This image is possibly referencing a wood engraving that appeared in Harper's Weekly (October 24, 1863) from a sketch by Captain Harry E. Wrigley, showing a View from Libby Prison. Geographic Description: Richmond, Va. --Riverfront District (Richmond, Va.) --James River (Richmond, Va.)
