Featured in this 1862 CDV view from Bradys Album Gallery are Union soldiers scattered about the abandoned Rebel fortifications at Centreville, with Quaker Guns visible in the foreground. Another copy of this image in the Library of Congress identifies the men as belonging to the 44th New York Infantry. Indeed, some of the men pictured are wearing the distinctive jackets and trousers of that regiment.
The men appear on the works in various states of relaxation, with one man asleep on the ground on the far right. Very good condition with light foxing and toning. There is a small abrasion in the albumen visible above the soldiers head standing tallest at center. Measures about 4 x 2 1/2.
