Washington Navy Yard (Feb. 4, 2003) -- This piece of art was painted by the 20th Century artist Xanthus Smith. This 1922 artwork depicts the sinking of the Confederate ship CSS Alabama after her fight with the USS Kearsarge (seen right). Alabama was the scourge of the American merchant fleet during a two-year commerce destroying campaign before being sunk during a battle with the Kearsarge in June 1864. American archaeologists and French Navy divers recently recovered a bell from the famous Confederate commerce raider from it’s resting place 180 feet below the surface of the English Channel off the coast of Cherbourg, France.
