"FLORIDA"
"Confederate War-Steamer"


19th Century lithograph, purporting to represent CSS Florida (1862-1864).
This image bears no real resemblance to that ship: Florida had two smokestacks, not one as shown here; a battery that included pivot guns, not an exclusively broadside armament; and a bark rig, not that of a ship; among other differences from the vessel seen in this print.

Collection of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, 1936.
