The American Civil War
The thundering line of battle stands, And in the air Death moans and sings: But Day shall clasp him with strong hands, And Night shall fold him in soft wings. ~ ~ ~ Julian Grenfell "Into Battle"  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  ·  · |

Re: The American Civil War
Pics as in pictures or photographs... then I agree totally. Earlier paintings and drawings somehow miss that magical reality spark that brings the viewer into the moment. |

Re: The American Civil War
Vintage gore is strangely more amazing to look at and feel moved by. Good finds, like the top pic with the skulls |
