A print of a photograph of the 41st New York Volunteer Infantry Regiment. Approximately sixty-two men posed around construction site. Note the partially constructed sidewalk in the left foreground and the lumber in the right background. The soldier's rifles are stacked. Some of the soldiers pose as if they are whittling and one looks as if he is drinking from a canteen. One soldier poses with a bugle and another with a drum, and many tug on pipes. Officers are present in the foreground. The 41st N.Y. was active from June 27, 1861 to July 3, 1863.
