David Herold - Lincoln Conspirator - Executed by Hanging on July 7, 1865
Description: 3D red cyan anaglyph of David Herold (1842 - 1865) Lincoln conspirator who accompanied John Wilkes Booth on his escape through southern Maryland into Virginia. After his capture he was put on trial and executed by hanging on July 7, 1865; he was 23 years old.
Notes: A brief excerpt from Wikipedia:
"......Herold and a group of co-conspirators had originally plotted to kidnap Lincoln, but later decided to kill him, Vice President Andrew Johnson, and Secretary of State William H. Seward in a bid to help the Confederacy's cause.
On the night of April 14, 1865, Herold guided Lewis Powell to Seward's house. Inside, Powell attempted to kill Seward, severely wounding him and other members of his household. The ensuing commotion frightened Herold and he rode off, leaving Powell to fend for himself. He then met with Booth outside of Washington, D.C., and they proceeded to Surrattsville, Maryland (now Clinton, Maryland) where they picked up weapons that Mary Surratt had left earlier for them at her property...."

Anaglyph Notes: Created from NARA 111-B-1161, multi-lens 8-image glass plate negative. Unfortunately, the NARA file is relatively low-res; I've sharpened and upscaled it, but it lacks the fine detail which would be present in the original glass plate. This is a new version with increased depth over the one I posted a few years ago.
