This carte de visite was published to polarize the anti slavery sentiment in the North during the American Civil War.
A series of these images showing "white slaves" were published and distributed. Fannie was probably the most well known and there are several different versions published.
This particular example was photographed by Kellogg in CT.
Reproduction of these images in any form is prohibited.
