Product Details:

First Battle of Corinth (Mississippi) by Kurz and Allison depicts the Union victory at Corinth, fought October 3–4, 1862, when Union forces under General William S. Rosecrans repelled a determined Confederate assault led by Generals Earl Van Dorn and Sterling Price. The print, typical of Kurz and Allison’s dramatic style, shows swirling smoke, cavalry charges, and artillery fire, transforming the clash into a colorful, almost theatrical panorama. While not strictly accurate in military detail, it highlights Union strength and resilience, framing the engagement as a moment of heroism and order amid the chaos of battle. Like their other Civil War works, this lithograph served both as commemoration and patriotic propaganda, presenting Corinth as a proud Union triumph that helped secure control of northern Mississippi.
