A sixth plate daguerreotype featuring a militia soldier possibly from New York in full uniform, holding a rifle. The image is enhanced with hand-applied tinting, bringing out the red in the soldier's epaulets and the details of his uniform, including the cross belt and shako hat adorned with a plume. The soldier's serious expression and firm grip on the rifle convey the pride and discipline of a mid-19th century militia member.
