"Favorite American Civil War artwork?" Topic

Include image for nominating purposes and I'm arbitrarily disallowing sculpted works.

Submissions can be modern or contemporary so long as they portray some aspect of the ACW.

CSS Alabama:

Man, it's a shame how many Confederate ships were lost to the Hessian tactic of throwing themselves off mountains. It really deserves more attention.

Actually think that may be Suvorov leading his men over the Alps. Can't import images but I like the one of Stuart leading his cavalry as a thunderstorm looms in the background.

Keith Rocco's "into the Wilderness"

Kunstler's "Hold At All Cost":

Carl Rochling's painting of the 114th Pennsylvania, Collis' Zouaves, at the Slaughter Pen Farm (Fredericksburg, VA) December 13th, 1862.

Sorry I misposted:

As a gamer also love the Hope Antietam paintings – as close as we will get to 'seeing' the action.

Howard Pyle's "The Battle of Nashville"

It depicts the attack on the afternoon of December 16, 1864 by the 5th and 9th Minnesota Infantry Regiments on the Confederate line just to the east of Shy's Hill.
