A striking sixth plate ambrotype captures a proud and confident young soldier of the New York 7th Militia/National Guard, circa 1860. Seated in a studio setting, the guardsman is dressed in a meticulously detailed uniform, complete with cross-belts, epaulettes, and a kepi resting beside him bearing the insignia "NG." The soldier grips his rifle with a poised readiness that reflects the discipline and pride of this esteemed pre-Civil War unit.
