CSS Virginia - Civil War Ironclad Warship Illustration #2102294 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white illustration depicts the CSS Virginia, a Confederate ironclad commissioned in 1862, notable for its armored casemate, rotating gun turret, and ram bow. The vessel flies both the Confederate naval jack and the U.S. flag (likely a captured or symbolic display), sailing through turbulent seas rendered with fine cross-hatching. Its design marked a turning point in naval architecture, ending the era of wooden warships.
