Was Curt Swan Inspired By A Civil War Painting?

Above, the Swan/Klein cover from 1965.


The below painting's (artist unknown to me) layout looks very familiar. It was posted at Piñon Post with an article on the Civil War 1862 Battle of Glorieta Pass. 

It strongly reminds me of a comic book cover from 1965.


Was it the inspiration to an Adventure Comics (no. 333) cover of Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes by Curt Swan (pencils) and George Klein (inks)? The story, "The Civil War of the Legion".

Interesting!
