This is the unique original Gouache painting by Nino Caroselli.

The Battle of Antietam, fought on September 17 1862 between Generals McClellan and Robert Lee, was the first major battle in the American Civil War to take place on Union soil.

It was the bloodiest single-day battle in American history, with about 23,000 casualties on both sides. This battle occurred one year before the famous Gettysburg in 1863.

  • Artist Biography
    Benedetto "Nino" Caroselli; Italy
    Nino Caroselli was an Italian painter and illustrator. Although not much is known about him, he would appear to have been active in Italy as a cover artist and painter.

    In the UK, Nino Caroselli produced hundred of covers for the pocket libraries published by Fleetway. He first appeared in 1959 as an illustrator for Top Spot but very quickly established himself as a cover artist on Super Detective Library, Thriller Picture Library and Cowboy Picture Library. However, it was his work for the War libraries that would keep him busy for many years during the 1960s.

    Caroselli also did 16 covers for the Sexton Blake Library in 1960-61 and he also produced at least one book cover (Angelique and the King by Sergeanne Golon, J. B. Lippincott).
