One of a soldier facing the camera directly. Gilt highlighting to buttons and "B" on kepi. His pants are tinted blue, cheeks, pink. He stands with his rifled musket, bayonet fixed. In oval period frame. Second image is of an officer, with Infantry bugle on kepi, with a foot officer's sword and sword rig. He is missing his right arm, apparently from the shoulder. In an oval frame with gesso flowers and vines top and bottom. Condition: First with numerous bends and wrinkles, but most of the emulsion is still intact. Some minor cracking of gesso on second, as is fairly common.
