Title Sepia photo of Spanish infantry
Nationality British
Period c 1880-90
Sold

This sepia photograph, pasted on a card page torn from a British military album, shows a Spanish infantry battalion, complete with its band and bugle corps parading in front of a group of infantry. The caption below the photograph simply says 'Spain - Infantry' and there is a clear image of a Spanish town in the background.

The dimensions of the photo are 22.5 x 17cm. Apart from some distortion of the image due to the buckling and shrinkage of the card and a little fading, the image is still quite sharp. The overall colour is a somewhat yellowed sepia.
