A Civil War-era Carte de Visite (CDV) studio portrait of a young drummer boy identified in pencil as "Eugene W. Walter." This striking image captures the innocence and bravery of youth during the turbulent times of the American Civil War.
The young drummer boy is posed with an elaborately decorated drum, showcasing intricate design work that was typical of the period. The drum, a notable feature of the portrait, bears the maker's mark of Miller & Rowell, a prominent photographic studio in Boston, Massachusetts, known for their exceptional work during the 1860s.
