Summary edit

Description
English: Bird’s eye view showing the hospital opened June 9th, 1862 at Forty-fourth Street and Baltimore Avenue. The hospital complex is surrounded by tents to accommodate the high number of patients as a result of the battles of Wilderness and Spotsylvania. Soldiers and visitors mill the grounds and horse-drawn ominbuses enter the compound. Outside the hospital, a horse-drawn wagon travels and soldiers drill in formation. Also contains several lines of descriptive text and the names of the principal officers printed below the image. Text describes the size and dimensions of the hospital, visiting hours, and patient services including Sisters of Charity on call, a sutler store, barber shop, printing office, and a band.
