A cabinet card photograph depicting a sepia toned image of two unidentified soldiers with two women. Posed against a studio backdrop, from left to right is a seated man in uniform jacket and light-colored pants with a single strip down the side, a standing young woman in a white dress, a seated woman in dark skirt, light blouse, and hat with elaborate ribbon decoration, and a standing unidentified young Buffalo Soldier private wearing a dark uniform jacket with square lapel pins, round buttons, and a bar pin with iron cross medallion. The young woman at center has her right hand resting on the shoulder of the seated man and his hat rests against the chair rungs. The back of the photograph is blank.
