About This Design

US Cruiser Brooklyn 1897

US Cruiser Brooklyn 1897

Pilot Boat New York with US Cruiser Brooklyn 1897 The work of pilots can be traced back to Ancient Greece and Rome, and would be employed to bring trading vessels into port safely. Pilot boats are used to transport maritime pilots between land and the ships they are piloting. They were once sailing boats that had to be fast because the first pilot to reach the incoming ship got the business. A pilot works primarily within a harbour or port, guiding the boat through hazardous stretches.. The USS Brooklyn was the third armoured cruiser of the United States Navy. It was commissioned in 1859. On April 4, 1887, Rear Admiral Chandler transferred his flag to the USS Brooklyn. It was the only armoured cruiser to be named for a city rather than a state. It served in the Atlantic during World War II as a convoy escort and fire support for amphibious landings and was decommissioned in 1947 and transferred to the Chilean Navy in 1951. It sank under during tow to a scrapyard in 1992

Creator Review
Looked great and was perfect for my Nana's 99th it arrived super quick so much quicker than sending the original from the other side of the world! My Nan loved my artwork too and the picture of us inside helped her remember who I was as she has Alzheimer's. Crisp and clear. Bright and colorful true to the original artwork I created. The photo we placed inside also looked great and clear.
