1907 CSS USS Tennessee Civil War Ironclad Ship Painting, Framed

Description: The CSS Tennessee was an ironclad ram built for the Confederate Navy during the Civil War, commissioned in February 1864 and serving as the flagship for Admiral Franklin Buchanan. In August of 1864, Admiral Buchanan sailed her into combat against Admiral David G. Farragut's fleet where she would ultimately be forced to surrender. She would later be commissioned as the USS Tennessee, participating in the Siege of Fort Morgan and serving on the Mississippi River before ultimately being decommissioned in 1865. Though she was sold for scrap in 1867, a number of her guns survive and are on display in Washington DC, Virginia, and Alabama.Though named Tennessee, she was a product of Alabama, laid down in Selma and fitted in Mobile. She is shown here sailing under a Confederate flag with commission pennant at full steam, a few buildings visible in the background. Painted on a wood panel and initialed in the corner HWD. A handwritten tag on the back in blue pen titles the piece "Tennessee" by H. Willard Davies, 1907. Modern frame, black and gold with wire to hang. Board measures approximately 21 1/8 inches long and 10 inches tall, framed to 23 3/4 inches long and 12 5/8 inches tall. Excellent antique condition: age darkening as expected, lovely colors, some minor edge wear from previous frame, minor scratches on frame as shown.

Any chips, cracks, tears, stains or other noticeable damage will be listed in the description. If no damages or defects are listed above, it is because I didn't see any and the item is in very good condition. Please look carefully at the photos, as they are considered to be part of the description! Many of the items I list are from estate, household, and yard sales and are priced low accordingly, but occasionally a flaw or defect may be overlooked or damage may occur during shipping.

I will do my best to resolve the problem.Payment:Payment to confirmed PayPal addresses only, please; no exceptions. Payment is due within 3 days of the close of the auction.
