Civil War Portrait – Framed Artillery Officer

Superb colorized salt print photograph of an unidentified artillery officer, perhaps a member of an unidentified militia battery. Portrait is housed within attractive stamped paper mats and a heavy wood frame. The officer wears a double-breasted frock coat with gilt wire epaulets. His shako bearing artillery insignia and a red and white plume sits on the table.
