Description: THE GLORIOUS FOURTH by Mort KunstlerORIGINAL HAND SIGNED & NUMBERED PRINTGENERAL U.S. GRANT"The Glorious Fourth" is by far the most time consuming and difficult painting I have ever done. I hope one enjoys looking at it half as much as I enjoyed finally finishing it. One of the greatest military victories in the history of the Western Hemisphere took place with the surrender of Vicksburg, on July 4, 1863, one day after the conclusion of the Battle of Gettysburg, over 30,000 troops surrendered, along with more than 60,000 guns and almost 200 cannons.This painting was conceived as a Union version of my previous painting of "General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson," which shows the triumphant entry of Jackson and his troops into Winchester, Virginia on May 25, 1862.I try to paint subjects that have never been done before. When I became familiar with the Vicksburg siege, I felt this episode was excellent material for a painting. The scene shows Grant riding down the Old Landing to meet and congratulate Admiral David Porter, commander of the river fleet, aboard the flagship, the U.S.S. Benton. There were an estimated 8,00 Union troops on hand, cheering, waving flags and celebrating this great victory, as well as the Fourth of July. The surrender took place about 10:00 A.M. Grant and his party then rode South down Yazoo City Road and turned west down the steep incline to the Old Landing and his historic meeting with Porter.NEVER FRAMED -- MINTThis is a beautiful collectible limited-edition Print. --- Personally Hand Signed by Mort Kunstler --- Image Size Is About --- 28 5/8" x 17 1/4" MINT CONDITION PRINT 950 Hand Signed & Numbered Prints in this EditionSOLD OUT EDITION --- STORED FLAT - PROTECTED - NEVER FRAMED --- Comes with the original certificate of authenticity.
