Antique painting of the end opening of a soldiers tent. See the canteen hanging from the top. IN the original frame. Circa 1880's Google cyclorama Gettysburg it was giant painting. When they took it down they cut in to small sections and sold them off. This is a rare piece.
Rare painting remnant from Gettysburg Cyclorama from a huge painting depicting the Gettysburg Battle. (The painting shows the end opening of a civil war soldiers’ tent with his canteen hanging and his rifle, see picture)
Before the National Park Service took over the new museum this is the photo they had on their website home page about the cyclorama.
If you are a Civil War or History buff this is a rare opportunity to buy a very rare piece of pure Americana. Very unusual piece.
Frame 24"x30" Painting showing 20"x26"
This piece could have come from repairs made to the original cyclorama (see attached historical information) at the original Gettysburg Museum. Or it could have come from “one” of the four copies of the cyclorama of which was sold to the Indians for tent material (see attached historical information).
This painting was featured on the Gettysburg National Park Service home page website until recently when it was changed to the park service emblem.
Because it was used on the National Park Service website home page, it’s more likely it was a cut section that was repaired on the original Gettysburg Cyclorama.
I purchased this piece from a long-time civil war antique dealer and collector about five years ago.
Very rare once in a lifetime chance to own a piece of famous and historic Americana like this.
