View of a Union Army field hospital at Brandy Station, Virginia. Uniformed officers and soldiers stand scattered in front of the entrance to the hospital, which sits behind a makeshift fence with a high archway at the entrance. Medical tents sit in rows behind the fence, and the stumps of trees that have been cut down cover the ground in front of the hospital.
