Description
Civil War era carte-de-visite (CDV) photograph of an African American man and his dog. Pleasing portrait of the two, who gaze in opposite directions off camera. The man's coat is a bit dirty near its left cuff, though his canine friend doesn't seem to mind.
Verso bears the imprint of a Troy, New York photographer. Notably Troy, New York was a nexus of the Underground Railroad, though this man's identity and personal history is unknown at this time.Â
Image has strong print quality with clipped corners for album insertion.
