Uncased 1/4 Plate Tintype of Union Cavalry Soldier on His Horse with Saber Drawn

This action-packed uncased 1/4 plate tintype captures a rare outdoor scene of a Union cavalry soldier mounted on his horse, saber dramatically drawn and ready. The trooper sits confidently in the saddle in this unique field portrait, showcasing the mobility, dash, and martial spirit of Civil War cavalry service. Outdoor mounted views with drawn sabers are particularly desirable and far less common than studio portraits.
 
While the tintype exhibits some bends and is presented uncased, the central subject remains visually compelling with strong appeal. The dynamic composition,  and equestrian subject matter create an engaging and historically evocative image that still displays very well.
 
Priced attractively at $450, this piece represents excellent value for collectors seeking an authentic, action-oriented cavalry image. A strong, conversation-worthy addition to any Civil War cavalry or mounted soldier collection.
