View of Union soldiers gathered at the abandoned Confederate fortification at Manassas. A long row of wooden barrels, stacked two high in some places, lines a trench filled with water. Wooden platforms sit in the foreground, lined with wooden posts on the right side, and an overturned wooden table rests on the dirt slope heading down into the trench. Buildings and additional works are visible in the background.
