The pictures of Robert E. Lee show clearly that growing older sometimes adds to the good looks. He was very handsome in his youth (in fact he was said to be the best looking officer in the army) not quite so in his 40's, but nothing beats his appearance during and after the war. As somebody already stated: regal!
Also Grant looked definiely more dignified later in life.
Sherman ... well ... looked like Sherman and the first photo of Jackson let me understand why his first nickname was “Blue lights“. Anna Morrison Jackson must have been a very courageous lady to stand the look of these piercing eyes.
Great thread, great photos, thanks for sharing!
