On the back of the painting a pencil inscription reads "PRESENTED TO GEN R. H. MILROY CHILDREN BY J. H. DEWEY 1871 CHRISTMAS DAY". There is also an old label depicted A. Lincoln seated entitled "RECONCILER". Also accompanied by some biographical material on General Milroy.

The painting as obtained a dark hue overall and would expect to clean well, if so desired.
