The photo of Hooker is clearly reproduced from a print, and I suspect the Grant image may have been a print as well, or at least highly modified. Both are real in the sense of being actual 19th century albumen prints.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.mutualart.com/Artwork/Ulysses-S--Grant-J-C--Buttre-Lithograph-/7E561E5C0374FD69DF59419003B65694" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.mutualart.com/Artwork/Ulysses-S--Grant-J-C--Buttre-Lithograph-/7E561E5C0374FD69DF59419003B65694" rel="nofollow">https://www.mutualart.com/Artwork/Ulysses-S--Grant-J-C--Buttre-Lithograph-/7E561E5C0374FD69DF59419003B65694</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
