Title Sepia photo of French garrison artillery
Nationality British
Period c 1880-90
Price £40.00

This sepia photograph, pasted on card cut from a page from a British military album, shows a howitzer of the French garrison artillery, together with a group of officers and senior NCOs. The caption in English underneath simply says 'French Artillery'.

The photograph measures 23.5 x 16.5cm. There is some buckling and shrinkage of the card backing, but the image remains nice and sharp, with little or no abrasion to the surface. The overall colour is a somewhat yellowed sepia.
