Wonderful portrait ... if it were in sepia, you'd swear it was taken in the 1860's.

the light here and his attitude create a whole mood in the image..
cute model, that seems feeling as if he would be there, at those years, determined to fight..
again you did.. a portrait with great technique and appeal.. and with a soul..

a very handsome man, seen him before, keep them coming Nestor.

Man does it ever look like this photo was taken back in the years of your Civil War. For us who do not live in the USA or know your history in details, when was that Civil War ? Is this soldier from the North or South side ?
This is a very beautiful portrait, I'm sure that the man would love to have that image printed for his office or whatever... I would.
Well done Nestor.
