War is the Enemy
Mort Künstler painted the Civil War, among other things of course. But it's what the scene depicts, that interested me. These are two enemies meeting. In the middle of the war, these two enemies are meeting to share coffee and tobacco. The South had the tobacco and the North had the coffee. See the rebel soldier holding a mug of coffee in his hand and the yankee smoking a pipe. It's not people that were and are our enemies; it's the war.
