Large 6.5″ x 8.5″ Albumen Photo of Lincoln Conspirator John Surratt in the Zouave Uniform in Which He Was Captured — Scarce Image Taken by Mathew Brady

Extremely rare 1867 albumen photograph of Lincoln conspirator John Surratt in the Papal Zouave military uniform in which he was captured. Large photo taken by Mathew Brady’s studio measures 6.5″ x 8.5″. Surratt – the son of conspirator Mary Surratt, who were hung along with George Azelrodt, Lewis Powell and David Herold – had earlier connived with John Wilkes Booth to kidnap Lincoln but denied any participation in the assassination plot. Surratt had met Booth while a confederate spy and participated in many secret meetings with the conspirators at his mother’s boarding house. After Lincoln’s assassination he fled to Europe where he served in the Papal Zouaves. He was eventually extradited to the U.S. where he stood trial but was never convicted of conspiracy because the statute of limitations had expired by the time his trial concluded. This extremely rare picture was taken by Mathew Brady and Co. in 1867 after his capture and is stamped by the Brady studio. It was sold to the public during Surratt’s high-profile 1867 trial. Photo is oval, measuring 6.5″ x 8.5″, and is mounted to 10″ x 12″ with a band of gold trim. Photo is captioned, in part: “Entered according to Act of Congress, by John H. Surratt, in the year 1868, in the Clerk’s Office of the District Court of the District of Columbia. John H. Surratt, in the Papal Zouave uniform in which he was captured”. Significant dampstaining on upper right, two chips out of upper edge, some foxing and a discreet 1.5″ tear along the left. Picture is nice and clear. Good condition. Sold for $2,756.
