His mother wanted him to improve in Europe, but Harper's magazine sent him to the Civil War battlefront, where he drew combat scenes and military life. Returning to his studio, he began a series of war paintings, which were immediately accepted. After this time, he turned his attention to familiar and tranquil scenes.
