The Mortal Encounter

Station, an early morning fight on the dusty Beverly Road proved the

life. This type of close-in, man-to-man combat was typical of much of the
cavalry fighting during the Civil War. Print measures 18"x 11½".

Duel at Yew Ridge
A surprise encounter on June 9, 1863 at Brandy Station,
Virginia grew to be the largest cavalry engagement of the Civil War. While
organizing a skillful retreat on Yew Ridge, Brig. Gen. W.H.F. "Rooney"
Lee, son of General
Robert E. Lee, was singled out by a young Yankee
Captain named Wesley Merritt - and with the point of his saber, demanded
the Confederate General's surrender. Lee responded by slashing with his
saber, narrowly missing Merritt's head and taking his hat instead. 22"x
18" limited edition print is signed and numbered by the artist.
