USS Constitution, the frigate launched in 1797 and nicknamed "Old Ironsides," is the vessel shown riding at anchor in Boston Harbor here, a subject that tied the ship to the city where she was built and where she was repaired and displayed for generations. Her War of 1812 victories, especially her defeat of HMS Guerriere, made her a national symbol, and the harbor setting reflects her long association with Boston. The print itself carries no recorded date, and the shelflist card names L. D. Eldred, whose connection to the work is not confirmed, so its exact age is uncertain.
