CDV is a three-quarter standing view of Union General Hugh J. Kilpatrick. He is wearing a dark colored double breasted frock coat and kepi.

Reverse does not have a photographer’s imprint.

Hugh Judson Kilpatrick (January 14, 1836 – December 4, 1881) was an officer in the Union Army during the American Civil War, achieving the rank of brevet major general. He was later the United States Minister to Chile, and a failed political candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives.

Known as "Kilcavalry" (or "Kill-Cavalry") for using tactics in battle that were considered as a reckless disregard for lives of soldiers under his command, Kilpatrick was both praised for the victories he achieved, and despised by Southerners whose homes and towns he devastated.

Image is clear and the contrast is good. Surface has some light dirt from age. Image has yellowed with time. [sm][ph:L]
