2008 Mort Künstler Collectible Ornament
Confederate Crossing
This beautiful ornament features Mort Künstler’s painting Confederate Crossing. It depicts a day, November 28, 1864, when General Nathan Bedford Forrest led the Confederate advance which forded the Duck River near Spring Hill, TN. They moved their horses through the icy river, looking for battle against Federal troops. Although unable to affect the campaign’s outcome, Forrest and his Confederate cavalry again set the standard for bold and courageous action. They aggressively engaged the Northern forces before them – driving back the Northern cavalry, pressing the Federal infantry, and attacking Northern supply trains.
