LARRY RIVERS
Last Civil War Veteran.

Color screenprint and collage on board, 1970. 735x500 mm; 29x19½ inches (sheet), full margins. Signed and numbered 1/100 in pencil, lower right. A very good impression with strong colors.

This color screenprint is derived from the same-titled painting by Rivers (1923-2002) from 1961, which in turn was based on the 1956 article and images in Life magazine about Albert Woolson, the last Confederate solider who passed away at 106 years old.
