Very rare CDV of four men wearing barrels for punishment, surrounded by at least three armed soldiers. The offender at left has a sign reading THIEF attached to his barrel and another larger sign hangs from the back of another, which reads VAGABOND. A complementary image, showing the same group turned around and looking away from the camera, is published in Fighting For Time: Image of War, 1861-1865, Vol. IV, p. 430, which identifies the image as being made by Morrow at the Union camp at Point Lookout, MD, which held some 50,000 Confederate prisoners and had a reputation of extreme cruelty among Union prison camps. Condition: Trimmed corners and slight overall fading.
