Armed forces of the Russian Empire. Circa 1878. 24 albumen prints. Each circa 24 x 20 cm or reverse. Each numbered, titled, and dated by another hand in pencil on the verso.

The photographs depict military and paramilitary figures from the Russian Empire’s southern frontier, including Caucasian Cossack officers and rank-and-file soldiers, as well as locally recruited mountaineers and irregular auxiliaries of Circassian type. Together, they reflect the diversity of imperial forces in the Caucasus, combining formal Cossack units with indigenous warrior traditions integrated into Russian service.
