A sixth-plate ambrotype featuring a Confederate Civil War soldier, discovered in North Carolina, proudly wearing a kepi adorned with a "C" insignia, symbolizing his company. The soldier's determined gaze and neatly groomed beard exude a sense of stoic dignity characteristic of wartime portraiture. His attire, including a crisp bow tie and detailed kepi, reflects both military and civilian fashion of the era. The presence of a piece of red cloth, reminiscent of the material used in Confederate uniforms, tucked in the back of the case adds a poignant historical element to this remarkable artifact.
