Description
Based on an historical painting by New England artist, Marshall Johnson, JR, who was a well known artist in the 1880s and 1890's. When I saw his work, originally published by the Detroit Publishing Company, I loved the action of that massive and well known frigate, Old Ironsides, aka the USS constitution. The lines of the ship and her full sails are very much modeled after his work as I loved the sense of light and detail to them. You can practically feel the wind on the sea can't you?
