moroccp 4 This carte de visite features a gentleman in some sort of uniform which includes a cap and sash. He appears very “official”. Is he a military veteran? Is he a train conductor or a law enforcement officer? The photographer of this image is F. Steffen. He operated a studio in Erlangen, Germany. The city is located in the Bavarian region of Germany. The Cabinet Card Gallery has another photograph by Steffen in it’s collection. You may view the image by placing the word “Steffen” in this site’s search box. (SOLD)moroccp 5

GERMAN OFFICER IN BAVARIA

german_0010

This cabinet photograph captures a German officer posing for photographer F. Steffen in Erlanger, Bavaria.  I have been informed that this stern looking officer is a Hauptmann (captain). I would appreciate confirmation of this rank  from a knowledgeable source, so please leave a comment if you have information.
