EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the U.S. steam frigate Wabash in all its glory, as it sails the seas under the 36-star American flag. The Wabash was a powerful and advanced warship of its time, commissioned into the United States Navy in 1865. The steam-powered frigate was built in response to the need for advanced naval technology during the American Civil War. The print shows the starboard side of the Wabash, revealing its impressive size and sleek design. The ship's tall, tapered masts and rigging are dwarfed by the massive steam stack rising from the deck, a testament to the ship's reliance on steam power for propulsion. The intricate details of the ship's iron hull and ornate gun ports are also visible, reflecting the meticulous craftsmanship that went into building the vessel. The American flag flying proudly at the foremast is a symbol of the nation's strength and unity during a time of great turmoil and change. The 36-star flag represents the admission of several new states into the Union, including Kansas, Nebraska, and West Virginia, which had recently joined the United States following the end of the Civil War. The U.S. steam frigate Wabash served an important role in the post-Civil War era, taking part in various diplomatic missions and demonstrating the United States' naval prowess to the world. This print is a fascinating glimpse into the history of American naval power and the technological advancements of the late 19th century.
