Lot Description
[CIVIL WAR]. CDV featuring General Philip H. Sheridan, General James W. Forsyth, and an unknown civilian. New Orleans: T. Lilienthal, n.d.
2 5/16 x 3 13/16 in. CDV on cardstock mount (print with toning, soiling, a few spots, and a few punctures near upper edge; mount with edges clipped). Lilienthal's pictorial imprint to verso along with penciled identification of subjects: "Read, Sheridan Forsyth."
The generals pose with their hands in their pockets, facing the civilian gentleman who holds a top hat down to his side with one hand and gestures to the men, as if in conversation, with the other. Sheridan wears his major general's frock coat and shoulder straps, while Forsyth wears his brigadier general's frock coat and shoulder straps.
