Description

A posed group portrait shows several uniformed officers arranged in front of a rough stone wall. The men wear military coats, caps, medals, and swords, with one seated figure in the foreground and others standing behind him. The image has a stark black-and-white, documentary feel. The card appears to be from the early 1900s, undated.
