Description: The Civil War Paintings of Mort Knstler Volume 4 by James I. Robertson, Mort Knstler This final volume of Mort Knstlers Civil War paintings covers the almost two-year period from the last shots fired at Gettysburg to the conclusion of the war and the beginning of national restoration. This time was punctuated with costly clashes at various crossroads in Virginia, Georgia, and Tennessee. While the outcome of the war seemed inevitable, final victory proved to be as elusive as it had been since the first shots of the war.Events from the summer of 1863 to the spring of 1864-Ulysses S. Grants victory at Vicksburg, the aftermath of Gettysburg, the Confederate raid into Indiana and Ogio, the Confederate attack at Chicakmunga and the siege of Chattanooga, and Grants appearance in Washington as general in chief-are portrayed by KnstlersThe Glorious Fourth, Veterans of Gettysburg, Morgans Ohio Raid, Eye of the Storm,andWhite House Gala.The artists brush shows a countryside in flames after the battle of the Wilderness, with Grants line advancing toward Petersburg, where Lees army is trapped, and William T. Sherman leaving Atlanta to march almost unopposed across Georgia toward Savannah inNo Turning Back, The Bloody Angle,and"War Is Hell!"The ruination of the Confederate Army of Tennessee at Spring Hill, Franklin, and Nashville in late 1864; the capture of Fort Fisher near Wilmington, North Carolina, in January 1865; and the surrender at Appomattox Court House are portrayed inConfederate Crossing, Bringing Cleburne In, The Gunner and the Colonel, "We Still Love You, General Lee,"andSalute of Honor.In assessing this volume of paintings, Professor James I. Robertson comments, "No artist is more aware of the Civil Wars human emotions than Mort Knstler.... [He] has that rare talent of not only capturing on canvas a moment in time; he has an enviable ability to bring a scene alive and give it feeling. years of effort and dedication have made the name Mort Knstler the hallmark of Civil War art."
