A quarter plate ambrotype features a studio portrait of a young boy, meticulously posed on a chair, dressed in what appears to be a miniature version of a pre-Civil War New York militia uniform. The uniform is adorned with a gilded eagle emblem on the hat and additional gilded highlights that emphasize the craftsmanship of the attire. The boy stands confidently, holding a small sword at his side, his expression conveying both innocence and the martial pride typical of the era.
