Summary[edit]

Description The Battle of Lookout Mountain by James Walker (second version), 1874. At the center on a white horse is Gen. Joseph Hooker, behind Hooker on a black horse is Brig. Gen. Daniel Butterfield. The painting is on display at the Lookout Mountain Battlefield Visitor Center at Point Park, NPS image. Note: James Walker's second image of the Battle of Lookout Mountain was his largest work and is considered by many to be his masterpiece. Commissioned by "Fighting Joe" Hooker to commemorate that general's part in "The Battle Above the Clouds," this second Battle of Lookout Mountain covers a thirteen-by-thirty-foot canvas and was produced for $20,000 over a four-year period. Upon completion in 1874, the painting toured the country with stops in New York, Philadelphia, and San Francisco (NPS).
