Artist's Description
This haunting and eloquent melody played at military funerals originated during the Civil War. The original bugle call for "Lights Out" was known as the "Tatoo." General Daniel Butterfield of the Union Army lengthened some notes and shortened others, thus creating the 24 notes of "Taps" we know today. It was first formally played in 1862, according to regulation. There are various romantic stories about its origin, but these stories have no basis in fact. No one knows who the author is.
I have lettered this beautiful print in a soft Roman style, with a photo of our flag in front of the house, flown over my brother's grave in Arlington.

A very beautiful and poignant image....lovely work. Like and Favourite and congratulations on your feature in Positive Energy. I was especially interested in this one as the title caught my eye.

I can't remember it all now....too long ago but it stirred a distant and happy memory in me. Thank you.
