Description: Thunder In The Valley ( Battle of New Market, Virginia - May 15, 1864 ) by Mort Kunstler Collectible Mint Condition Print ( WE ARE AN AUTHORIZED MORT KUNSTLER GALLERY )ORIGINAL HAND SIGNED & NUMBERED PRINT This is a beautiful collectible limited-edition Print ------ SOLD OUT PRINT EDITION ---- Personally Hand Signed by Mort Kunstler Double Signed by KunstlerWhen I finally decided to paint the Battle of New Market, I knew I wanted to incorporate a number of important visual elements into the painting. They included a terrible thunder storm, the VMI students participating in a valiant fashion, and a former Vice President of the United States as commanding General for the Confederates.On visiting the Battlefield, I went step by step through the battle with Director Ed Merrill and Curator Keith Gibson. I was struck by the charm and beauty of the Bushong House on the Battlefield. If I came in close on the students near the house, they would simply be marching in parade ground precision past the building and I knew this would not make an interesting picture. However, in wandering around the Battlefield where General John C. Breckenridge had his command post, I realized I could do it all - show Breckenridge, show an artillery battery in action near the command position, utilize the lightning as a light source, show the students and feature the Bushong House in this one painting. I was sure this was the solution to the problem of how to say "New Market" to the viewer in a dramatic and interesting way.With the torrential downpour, the main effect I was after was wetness. The rain would have washed the mud off men and horses as fast as they were being covered with it. I had also never seen a painting of anyone with the rubberized blankets in use at the time and decided to put one on General Breckenridge.I find the difficulties of fighting a battle under these circumstances truly amazing. Imagine trying to keep track of the enemy, keep your powder dry and your weapons in working order, and control your horse with the lightning, thunder and gunfire.These were some of the things I tried to capture in Thunder in the Valley. I hope I have succeeded.
