Found this early 1870s lithograph engraving of Stonewall Jackson at a local auction and couldn't resist. Cheers!

That's a beauty! If I had the wall space, I'd hang that up with glee.

Thank you! It's pretty cool.

Think this image displays one of the more balanced (and endearing) facial representations of him.

Not too stern; not too genial.

He looks pleasant and dignified, yet serious-minded.

Agree. Just a class act in so many ways. Thanks!

I'd hang it even if I didn't have the wall space,something else would have to go

 

[Story]

Find someplace to hang it prominently.

Tell small visitors that the eyes will follow them around the room just before Halloween.

Enjoy the subsequent jocularity of knowing they'll need years of counseling.​

Very Nice Piece. The wood on the back tells me its old and in the original frame it was put in. Congrats.

Yes, something else will be going to make room for Stonewall !

Will you write up the identifiers at the bottom of the lithograph. That could be a story with many answers of itself. Thanks,
Lubliner.

As cool as it looks, I think I would replace the old, wooden board back with an acid free backing to help keep the image from yellowing with age. I get mine done at Michaels' framing department.

His place of honor, right next to the CSS Alabama. Regards.

Those 2 compliment each other. They make for a good conversation starter too.
