Title Sepia photo of a company of Bersaglieri (Italian)
Nationality British
Period c 1880-90
Price £40.00

This sepia photograph, pasted on a card page torn from a British military album, shows a company of this famous Italian light infantry unit, complete with their bugle section and officers standing in front of double files of men.

The dimensions of the photo are 22 x 13.5cm. 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. There is a little abrasion to the background at the top right hand corner.
