A bronze figure of a woman, her right arm raised, sits enthroned on a tall stone pedestal inscribed "IN MEMORIAM" with a row of memorial wreaths below, set before a large columned civic building with striped awnings in its windows. The card names it as the Soldiers' Monument of Jersey City, New Jersey, a Civil War memorial. Such monuments were commonly erected in the decades after the war on courthouse and city hall grounds, and this one stands in the city's civic center.
