A quarter plate tintype captures a stark image of a primitive, seemingly abandoned building, likely from the Civil War era. The structure, constructed of rough-hewn wood planks, is depicted in a desolate setting, evoking a sense of abandonment and the harsh realities of the time.

The building's weathered appearance, along with the dilapidated roof and sagging walls, suggests it may have served as a temporary dwelling or outpost during the Civil War. The lack of any visible human presence adds to the image's haunting quality, making it a reminder of the era's hardships.
