  DEAN ELLIS (1920 - 2009) "JEFFERSON DAVIS"Dean Ellis (New York, 1920 - 2009) "Jefferson Davis" Signed lower right. Original Oil painting on Masonite. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This artwork was originally published on the Fleetwood Commemorative Cover for The Shapers of America series issued in 1987. A graduate of West Point, Jefferson Davis had fought in the Black Hawk War and served with distinction in the Mexican War. He served as Secretary of War under President Pierce and President Zachary Taylor. Kentucky born, he moved to Mississippi and there served as Congressman, Senator, and then returned to the Senate to be the leading spokesman for States Rights. When the seceding States met at Montgomery, Alabama to establish the Confederate States of America, they chose Davis as President of the new nation. As a wartime president, he was respected, and proved to be as able, decisive, wise in his choice of generals and of diplomats as could be expected. But, under the Confederate Constitution, he was unable to impose national law or use the judiciary system in the absence of a Supreme Court. Inevitably all of his -- and the South's -- expectations were disappointed: Britain did not intervene, the North rallied around Lincoln; internal lines of communication did not allow the vastly outnumbered Confederates to shift their forces easily and, most importantly, Lincoln finally found generals -- Grant and Sherman -- who could hold their own with Lee and his lieutenants. After Appomattox, Davis sought to flee, but was captured and briefly imprisoned for treason. But he was never brought to trial. He spent his last years writing a history of the Confederate States of America. Image Size: 18 x 21 in. Overall Size: 24 x 27 in. Unframed.

• TOM MCNEELY (B. 1935) "JAMES
  TOM MCNEELY (B. 1935) "JAMES DEAN"Tom McNeely (Canadian, B. 1935) "James Dean - American Icon" Signed lower right. Original Watercolor on Paper. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting originally appeared on the Fleetwood First Day Cover of the 32c James Dean stamp issued June 24, 1996. James Dean symbolized dichotomous adolescence in all its glory. Tough, vulnerable and rebellious teenagers, feeling misunderstood and wanting acceptance, were drawn to the young actor. His tragic, sudden death not only shocked teen America, but spurred it to new heights of hero worship. With his first film, East of Eden, James Dean superbly portrayed the misunderstood, rebellious son with a vulnerable spirit that thousands of teenagers could identify with. However, it was Dean's next film, Rebel Without a Cause, that would forever imprint in the minds of his audience attitudes of independence, non-conformism and hostility toward established mores. In that film Dean was depicted as a loner, standing out from other teens, yet nevertheless a vital part of them. Though labeled a rebel, the character he portrayed was vulnerable and sought acceptance from those in authority. For America's teenagers, Dean's performance served as a paradigm for the turmoil and insecurities of adolescence. Dean's third and final film, Giant, with Elizabeth Taylor and Rock Hudson, told the story of the generational conflict between two Texas families. The film appears to be a drama aimed at adults, yet Dean's intense portrayal of a loner who is rejected and alienated from the world aroused sympathy and compassion in young viewers. An American icon, Dean embodied the tragedy and hope of youth, while his death made him the legend that would become James Dean. Image Size: 22 x 16 in. Overall Size: 23.75 x 20.25 in. Unframed.

  DEAN ELLIS (1920 - 2009) "ROBERT E. LEE"Dean Ellis (American, 1920 - 2009) "Robert E. Lee" Signed middle right. Original Oil painting on Masonite. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This artwork was originally published on the Fleetwood Commemorative Cover for The Shapers of America series issued in 1987. Distinguished in family, in presence, and in character, he seemed to have every virtue. His father was the famous "Lighthorse Harry" Lee of Revolutionary fame. His wife was the great-granddaughter of Martha Washington. He presided over a magnificent Arlington estate. He went through West Point without a single demerit and served with distinction in the Mexican War. He was -- almost inevitably -- Superintendent of West Point Academy. Robert E. Lee was, indeed, an ardent patriot, devoted to the Union. But when Beauregard fired on Fort Sumter, Lee made the only decision he could, siding with his home state and the cause of its people. But, throughout the war, he was free of any private hostility. He referred to the Union troops as "those people," not the enemy. As Commander in Chief of the Army of Northern Virginia, he proved himself a brilliant combat general and skillful strategist, loved by subordinates and soldiers alike. "I would go through Hell for General Lee," Stonewall Jackson said. Against odds sometimes of two to one, Lee repeatedly took the offensive, and shattered one Union Army after another. "It is well war is so terrible," he said, "else we should get too fond of it." When he was forced to surrender, Lee bade farewell to those who had been "faithful to the last." "Take satisfaction in the consciousness of duty faithfully performed," he said. After his retirement, Lee was appointed President of Washington College in Lexington, Virginia. Image Size: 18 x 21 in.
