CS Gen John Bell Hood Civil War color photo

Description: An original period image restored and tinted by internationally known color artist and author of "Restoring and Tinting Vintage Images", David Richardson. This is an exclusive listing of his work. Each image is taken from a high resolution negative and then cleaned of blemishes, damage, scratches, and whatever the decades have caused. Then the image is carefully brought back to life by adding color to the black and white image. By using these techniques the hands of time are turned back and for the first time you can see the images in color as they might have been on the day they were taken. You have your choice of size and finish for the photo. Note that the size you choose may require cropping and the finished image may appear slightly different than the one shown. If preferred a white border can be added above/below or left/right to allow all of the original image to print. If not requested when placing your order your image may be cropped. If you would like to see how a specific image will look for the size you have chosen, please contact us and indicate the size you are interested in.

Glossy (Metallic) finish:Our Metallic Photo Paper features a unique pearlescent surface.

John Bell Hood “No wonder the general says they talk of him as if he were a centipede. His leg is in everybody’s mouth.” wrote a woman in Richmond, VA Following a recovery period in Georgia, disabled John Bell Hood spends four months in Richmond, Virginia, where he is the center of attention. His many well-wishers included President Jefferson Davis, who would assist Hood down the church steps after Sunday services. Hood receives his injuries as a result of his bravery during battle. Hood permanently loses the use of his left arm leading a charge during the Battle of Gettysburg. Three months letter, a Minié ball shatters his leg while leading a charge over and beyond the Federal breastworks at Chickamauga. His leg is amputated four inches below the hip. Hood will spend the rest of his life as a disabled man. Off the field, Hood is just as reckless. He bets $2,500 in a poker game "with nary a pair his hand". In January of 1864, Hood rides a horse before a crowd of supporters for the first time since his amputation. One witness remarked, “He has body enough left to hold his soul.” Hood recalled, “My restoration was so complete that I was enabled to keep in the saddle when on active duty, and, during the remainder of the war, never to require an ambulance either day or night.” Hood's physical recovery prompts a return to the military. On July 17, 1864, Hood takes command of the Army of Tennessee, replacing General Johnson in Atlanta. On January 13, 1865, Hood requests to be relieved of the command. Regrettably, the Army of Tennessee, was never able to recover from Hood's leadership.
