GENERAL JAMES LONGSTREET

Original Painting

1st Corps Commander, in General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia, he was the senior lieutenant general of the Confederate Army. Affectionately known as "Old Pete" to his intimate friends, and Lee's "Old War Horse," General James Longstreet was one of the best known Confederate Generals to come out of the War Between The States.

This is a unique "one of a kind" original painting of Tom Berenger as he portrays Confederate General James Longstreet from the celebrated Civil War...
