about this piece

On an estate called "Belvoir," just south of Fredericksburg, Lee and Jackson attended one of those prayer meetings. They were said to have been sitting side by side, on a log, "moved to tears one Sunday by the affecting eloquence with which Reverend B.T. Lacy descibed the homes from which the army had been drawn. To show both of them in such a poignant moment was, I felt, an opportunity for a memorable painting. There were always children at the winter camps and I decided this was also an aopportunity to paint my grandson, Tommy, alongside the two great ones.
Lee was wearing his uniform of that period, with a standup collar and his three stars with no wreath. Jackson was wearing a new uniform given to him by J.E.B. Stuart. It had a buff white collar and cuffs and sleeve gilt. He was wearing the butternut cap with 152271 trim that was given to him in December 1862.
