So here is a cool pen and ink original work by George A Williams... sadly I doubt it was THE george a William's as he was english and not sure he made it to the US let alone do a CW work.
Rhe back says. Original pen and ink for the boy spy by William's, then under that george a williams.
The backing says something similar in black also.
But, the shows a group of contraband having IDd a spy in the union ranks. The spy has dug his grave and though he protests I dont think anyone was swayed.
Lots of quality background: mad dash of Cavalry, contraband eating watermelon, officers paying more attention to the cavalry. And off to the far right still on the wagon, is the spys coffin.
Very well done by a good hand.
Has an illustration feel to it.
Like it?
Anyone know this William's guy?
