General Robert E. Lee in 1869 by Michael Miley Poster

General Robert E. Lee in his elder years by Boude and Miley, late 1869. Robert E. Lee as President of Washington College Michael Miley Lexington, Virginia ca. 1870 The is the last photograph of Lee taken by Miley. A formal portrait of the sitter, it is a haunting image of a strong and genteel man who by his position as Confederate commander and his uncommonly handsome appearance had become a symbol of the best qualities then associated with Old Virginia and the Old South. Although taken at the end of his life, Lee is shown to retain the charismatic appearance that observers noted as early as his days at West Point.
