(CIVIL WAR--ART.) [Waud, Alfred.] Our Center on the Eve of 13th. Pencil, pastel and watercolor on paper, 2 1/4 x 4 inches, signed "A.R.W." on verso; minimal wear. Laid with corner mounts in mat; not examined out of frame. [Fredericksburg, VA?], 13 [December 1862?]
This vignette battlefield view was apparently never published in Harper's Weekly. The Battle of Fredericksburg was the only major Civil War battle to take place on the 13th of a month, and Waud was there--three of his other Fredericksburg sketches appeared in the 3 January 1863 issue.
