View of the Union Army field repair shop near Petersburg, Virginia. Three tents with open flaps sit in a row behind a large group of men, many wearing aprons and most of whom have turned to face the camera. One man holds a large wagon wheel among a pile of wooden planks, as others saw wood or sharpen knives and axes. The skeleton of a covered wagon sits to the left of the group.
