This is the gallery of George W. Hope. This gallery produced CDVs of three formerly enslaved children from New Orleans—Rebecca Huger, Charles Taylor, and Rosina Downs. The resulting cartes de visite were sold to raise funds for the education of African-Americans in the Department of the Gulf, a Union-occupied area during the Civil War.
