Prints of "Battle of Champion Hill" and of "George Washington"

Two Exquisite Civil War Prints Framed Together, Choice Extremely Fine.
The 28.5" x 22.5" gold-gilt frame houses two 9" x 13" Civil War prints.

1. "The Battle of Champion Hill," printed by H.H. Loyd & Co. The Union soldiers in blue stand out nicely against a muted battlefield. The Battle of Champion Hill was fought on May 16, 1863, and was considered the pivotal battle in the Vicksburg Campaign of the Civil War.

2. George Washington by Kelloggs and Thayer of New York. Titled "Washington's Reception by the Ladies at Trenton, N. J., April, 1789." Washington is on horseback waving his hat with a throng of ladies around and in banners above: "The Hero Who Defended the Mothers Will Protect the Daughters, December 26, 1776." Only Washington, his generals, and floral arrangements have color as the ladies remain in black and white.
