This print captures the dramatic Battle of Cherbourg, a significant event during the American Civil War that took place on June 19th, 1864. The image showcases three prominent vessels positioned off the French coast. From left to right, we see the Federal steam-sloop USS Kearsarge, the British yacht Deerhound, and the Confederate war steamer CSS Alabama. The inset portraits in this print highlight two key naval officers involved in this historic clash. On the left is John Ancrum Winslow, a distinguished US naval officer who commanded USS Kearsarge during this battle. Opposite him is Raphael Semmes, an accomplished Confederate naval officer who led CSS Alabama. Set against a picturesque backdrop of open sea and clear skies, this photograph beautifully encapsulates both the intensity and grandeur of this maritime confrontation. The flags proudly waving atop each vessel symbolize their respective allegiances and unwavering determination. As you gaze upon this remarkable piece of history frozen in time, you can almost feel yourself transported back to that fateful day when these mighty ships clashed amidst cannon fire and billowing smoke.
