American Soldiers, Cuba

John F. Jarvis, Underwood & Underwood

National Gallery of Art

This is a photograph of soldiers standing in formation. The image shows a long line of soldiers in uniform, each holding a rifle with both hands and wearing hats. They stand on a barren field, with the line extending into the distance. The uniforms are consistent, featuring dark jackets, light gloves, and belts. The perspective emphasizes the alignment and discipline of the formation, and the landscape in the background shows sparse trees and open land.
