Been trying to find interesting images of the Russian forces in the Crimea but it's pretty hard as I don't speak Russian. I was looking for the pictures of Alexander Viskovatov (1804—1858) for the period but with no luck but came across this photo. I think it's from the 1860s - there's another one and a description here

I think the complete Viskovatov (text and plates) can be found here (still in Russian, but check it out and have a dictionary at hand):
