A whimsical view of the Hunley being pulled under by the Housatonic, a theory that has since been disproved. Some of the detail is quite accurate, particularly the rudder, which was probably copied from the Conrad Wise Chapman painting. The rear hatch, however, is drawn about twice as large as life and would never have been opened under those circumstances.

* PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is an extensible file format for the lossless, portable, well-compressed storage of raster images. PNG provides a patent-free replacement for GIF and can also replace many common uses of TIFF. Indexed-color, grayscale, and truecolor images are supported, plus an optional alpha channel for transparency. Sample depths range from 1 to 16 bits per component (up to 48bit images for RGB, or 64bit for RGBA).
