EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1863, during the tumultuous times of the American Civil War. The image showcases a remarkable sight - the Confederate warship known as C. S. S. Rappahannock, anchored majestically at Calais, France. This wood engraving, created by an English artist in that same year, perfectly captures the grandeur and power of this vessel. The Rappahannock stands tall against a picturesque backdrop of calm waters and a bustling harbor. Its sleek design and imposing presence are evident even from afar. This steam-powered boat was undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with on the high seas. As we gaze upon this historic scene, it is impossible not to reflect on the significance of this moment in time. The Rappahannock represents more than just a warship; it symbolizes America's divided past and its struggle for unity. Intriguingly enough, here it rests far away from its homeland shores - an emblematic reminder that conflicts have far-reaching consequences beyond borders. This print serves as both a visual testament to maritime history and an invitation for contemplation about our shared human experiences during times of conflict. It reminds us that even amidst chaos and division, there is always beauty to be found in artistry and craftsmanship.
