The painting depicts two volunteers for the Union Army who sport their regiment’s highly colorful uniforms, a design soon discovered as impractical due to its ability to be spotted by sharpshooters. The Cleveland Museum of Art acquired this work during World War II. It seems likely that the painting’s imagery was viewed as especially significant for its wartime audience.
