Visual Elements and Representation
The primary image might feature a portrait of a soldier, a group of soldiers, a regiment formation, or a depiction of a battle scene or camp life. The specific subject matter from the "004" reference is designed to capture the essence of the 23rd New York Infantry. Whether it's a stark portrait of a soldier reflecting the hardships of war, or a depiction of the regiment's flag, the design aims to evoke the time period and the sacrifices made.
The overall style of the artwork is intended to be historically accurate. This could involve careful attention to the details of uniforms, weaponry, and the visual vocabulary of the era. The color palette often reflects the period using muted tones common in historical photography and the limited color spectrum available at the time.

Depending on the specific image chosen, additional symbolic meaning might be present. A soldier's portrait could represent individual valor and sacrifice.
