Cavalry Trooper
Carte de visite by George G. Rockwood of New York City. A cavalryman sits astride a horse with dappled flank and legs in front of stone building. His light jacket, likely gray, suggests he may have served in one of New York's state militia regiments.
Photographer George Gardner Rockwood (1832-1911) claimed to have produced the first carte de visite in the United States. He is best known for his portraits of notable men and women in the latter 19th century.
