First Texas Brigade Antietam Series - dioramas/vignettes
St. Petersburg, Russia has been known for many years as a center of some of the world's finest sculptors and painters of military miniatures. We have contracted with some of these artists to create exquisitely sculpted figures of the Civil War.

Brief History of the 1st Texas: Our new Antietam series features the First Texas Brigade at the Battle of Antietam in September of 1862. Our first vignette in this series features one of the fallen color bearers from this battle. As the battle honors attest (we had the flag painted with 100% historical accuracy), the 1st Texas fought under this flag throughout the Peninsula Campaign. During the desperate Battle of Antietam, in Miller's cornfield, the 1st Texas suffered 82.3 percent casualties -- the highest endured by any unit North or South during the entire war. In the course of the battle, nine brave Texas standard bearers fell carrying this flag. |
