1868 Dated, Framed Oil Portrait of Union General Eugene Asa Carr, Extremely Fine. 3.25" x 2.75" (oval) with the integral hanger still attached. Painted on artist's card stock. Carr is shown in uniform with a full beard. He is identified on the back of the portrait by the unnamed artist as "E.L. Carr Chief Officer of the 10th Cavalry, Nov. 3, 1868," but the middle initial is incorrect, and Carr served in the 3rd Illinois Cavalry. An interesting, one-of-a-kind piece that should mesh nicely with the collecting of CDVs and Civil War images.
