Three sets of images are linked chronologically from left to right. The first section represents the battle itself in scenes from the fighting on Cemetery Hill on 2 July (the subject of this giclee print); the second section portrays the interring of the dead; lastly, the third section depicts Abraham Lincoln delivering his immortal address on 19 November 1863. "Original artwork is a significant component of the exhibit galleries," said Tom Schwartz, Illinois State Historian and the Supervising Historian for the creation of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum. "Our mandate to Bob Rogers and BRC Imagination Arts was to select an artist whose work would elicit excitement and empathy while also being historically accurate with even the smallest details. Keith Rocco does all this and more." "It was a short search. The obvious choice was Keith," said Bob Rogers. "No living artist has Keith's knowledge and insight into the War Between the States. Keith is obsessed with meticulous accuracy and detail, but at the same time he captures the raw action, power and emotion of the conflict. Keith's work puts you right into the boots of those men. You can almost hear the bullets knifing past your ear" This giclee is on canvas, signed by the artist and framed.  It is number 40 of 200.  The frame was professionally added at a cost of $150 to protect the canvas and make for easy hanging.  It has a heavy paper covering on the back with an envelope for storing the certification.    It measures 34" X 18" including the frame, and the giclee shows 13 1/2" X 29 1/2" .
