A portion of it reads "We are encamped on a high hill about a quarter of a mile out of town it is a very pleasant place with the exception of being rather cool. Do not know how long we will stay here but do not expect to long as I think Gen. Rozencrantz is a man that will not stop long in a place. But still he may leave us here for all that is evident that there will be some troups (sic) left here and we may be the ones that will be lucky enough to stay... We have had very easy times since we have been here. Although we have not had much to eat some of the time, our rations consisted entirely of bread and fresh meat and corn or rye coffee. But since communication has opened we are faring a little better in respect to rations and a good deal better in respect to mail." Letter goes on to discuss Wheelock's opinions toward Generals Burnsides and Buell, and notes that "a private is not thought any more of than a slave (that is, by his superiors)"; the letter also contains personal comment about news from home. Pages 7-5/8" x 4-5/8". 3rd item--Confederate Newspaper, The Quitman Advertiser, pub. Quitman, Miss., April 17, 1863.

• MANNER OF PETER PAUL RUBENS (FLEMISH
  MANNER OF PETER PAUL RUBENS (FLEMISH 1577-1640) TWO ROM...manner of PETER PAUL RUBENS (Flemish 1577-1640) TWO ROMAN EMPEROR PORTRAITS, "Ivlius-Ceser I," AND "Claudius, " 17TH/18TH CENTURY, oil on canvas, comprising two portraits, one of Roman Emperor Julius Caesar (100 BC - 44 BC) in a three-quarter profile, and the other example of Roman Emperor Claudius (10 BC - 54 BC) in profile, each with title banners below oval trompe l'oeil painted frames, 25" x 18 3/4", framed, 31 1/4" x 23 1/4". Note: The popularity of the masculine portraits of Roman Emperors as a series of cabinet paintings within the princely courts of Europe took almost two centuries to mature. The use of ancient Roman emperors as a princely aesthetic ignited with a series of emperors painted originally by Titian in the late 16th century. Though lost to history, Aegidius Sadeler engraved copies after Titian's portraits. Peter Paul Rubens, revived by patronage requests, painted his portrait series around 1625. The present portrait of Claudius (10 BC - 54 BC) is painted with short powered hair curls, a slight moustache and vein protruding neck; the overall fashion is compared with an engraving of the playwright Molière, who played the role of Caesar in Corneille's The Death of Pompey debuting in 1642. The present paintings were likely once part of a larger series, which both captures and resonates the nearly two hundred year decorative influence of the Caesar series.
