dc.description.abstract | With the possible exception of Robert E. Lee, Stonewall JacKson emerged from the American Civil War as the most popular and well-known Southern leader. An intense interest in his exploits and character created a demand for images of Jackson in all media -- a demand which was soon met. Two photographs of him were taken during the war. Matthew Brady retrieved a pre-war photo of Jackson from his files and published it in the north and abroad. Numerous engravngs appeared afrer his death based on the war-time photographs, and were sold as individual works or used to illustrate articles and books about the South's hero. His face and body were reproduced by sculptors -- from monumental, public statues to portrait busts. He was enlisted to sell the last prcducts. .Jackson soon joined the select group of easily recognized American figures. Jackson quickly became a popular subject for portrait painters, or, more precisely, various groups and individuals who commissioned several painted images of him.
