African-American soldier cannon Virginia Color Tinted Photo Civil War 01981

Description: This is an original period image from the Library of Congress, the National Archives and other quality sources restored and tinted by the internationally known color artist and author of "Restoring and Tinting Vintage Images", David Richardson. This is an exclusive listing of his work on ebay. Each image is taken from a high resolution negative and then cleaned of blemishes, damage, scratches, and whatever the decades have caused. Then the image is carefully brought back to life by adding color to the black and white image. By using these techniques the hands of time are turned back and for the first time you can see the images in color as they might have been on the day they were taken. You have your choice of size and finish for the photo. Note that the size you choose may require cropping and the finished image may appear slightly different than the one shown. If preferred a white border can be added above/below or left/right to allow all of the original image to print. Unless requested when placing your order, your image may be cropped. If you would like to see how a specific image will look for the size you have chosen, please contact us and indicate the size you are interested in. Matte Finish: E-Surface Photo Paper is by far our most popular photographic paper. As a professional paper, it boasts rich, sharp color that won't fade or yellow, creating beautiful prints that will last for years to come. Glossy Finish: Fuji Pearl paper offers natural looking skin-tones, sharp details and beautifully saturated colors. It is strong and resistant to tearing or curling without any additional lamination. This paper uses a patented combination of film and laminate layers that results in striking three-dimensional images on an ultra-bright background. This paper is truly impressive. African-American guard with 12-pdr Napoleon Gun, Unknown location The "Napoleon" 12 Pounder was essentially obsolete by the time of the Civil War, but still played a vital role. Named for Napoleon III of France it was a safe, reliable and effective weapon, especially at close range. Mad of bronze and weighing in at more than 1,200 pounds it could fire a 12 pound projectile 1,600 yards. Since it was a smoothbore (did not have rifling on the interior of the barrel) it was quick and easy to load, but lacked accuracy at any great range. In addition its weight required additional horses and men to maneuver. It’s chief rival on the field was the 3 inch Ordnance Rifle which came in more than 400 pounds lighter than the Napoleon and could accurately fire a 9 ½ pound projectile over 1,800 yards. With rifled guns being difficult to use at short range and the Napoleon less accurate at longer range the solution was to combine the two types of weapons and allow them each to be used at their most effective range. This way the Ordnance Rifle was used like a long range target rifle and the Napoleon in close combat where accuracy was less of an issue. The South, with limited capacity to manufacture more accurate rifled guns relied on the Napoleon as the mainstay of their arsenal for the entire war.
