CSS Palmetto State



The CSS Palmetto State was one of the more successful Ironclads built, she is depicted at anchor in the Charleston Harbor. This is my water color copy of a drawing by R. G. Skerritt, one of the most accurate naval artists of the War Between the States. His original wash sketch of this ship and more can be found online at the Naval Historical center
