Is this a Photograph of Lincoln’s Funeral?

For years this photograph languished in the National Archives, part of their collection of the works of Matthew Brady, the famous Civil War photographer. But a researcher had recently suggested that this may show the funeral of Abraham Lincoln in New York City. You can get the full story at The Washington Post, or see a larger image at the National Archives.
