    Description

    Orig Antique Civil War Engraving  "Zouaves at Battle of Antietam"
    Published in Frank Leslie's "Famous Leaders and Battles of the Civil War" - 1896
    This illustration was originally published in Frank Leslie's Newsletter in 1862, shortly after the event occurred.  All these exact same artworks were re-published after the war by Leslie's wife, after his death.
    As you can read in the caption beneath the image, this illustrates Hawkins' Zouaves conducting a bayonet charge at the Battle of Antietam.
    Print is in  very good condition.  No stains, holes or tears.  A very light discoloration in the top and right side margins.  There's engraved portraits on the back side. Generals Ord, Barlow and Sharpe.
    Paper size is 10" x  15"
    Note:  For a reason I can't explain, my photos of these larger engravings wind up looking wishy- washy, like watercolors!  To get a better idea of what the engraving actually looks like, I've added a scan of part of the print.  It's too big for my scanner to scan the whole image.
