From the Getty Museum record

View of the tower at the Malakoff surrounded by broken gabions, abandoned trenches, stones, and rubble leftover from battle. A tent and small shed sit atop a stone wall, with telegraph wires running from two poles erected on either side. A soldier stands on the wall, resting his hands on the nose of his upright rifle.
