Description
For nearly thirty years, Mort Kunstler has interpreted the Civil War through his paintings. As part of his research, he has turned to leading historians and scholars for information that he has then translated on canvas to create an indelible image of the war, in many ways the defining ordeal in American history. The four volumes that make up THE CIVIL WAR PAINTINGS OF MORT KUNSTLER contains more than 650 images. Some of these images are of original sketches, others are of works in progress, others are completed paintings, yet others are details in the paintings that are of particular interest. The four-volume set contains the following titles: Volume 1: FORT SUMTER TO ANTIETAM, Volume 2: FREDERICKSBURG TO GETTYSBURG, Volume 3: THE GETTYSBURG CAMPAIGN, and Volume 4: GETTYSBURG TO APPOMATTOX.
