This was kind of a big day back in 1812…Congress declared war on Great Britain. I found this beautiful painting in NHHC’s collection. It depicts the escape of the CONSTITUTION in mid-July of that year. I might have to post it again on the actual day because it’s so beautiful!

The Kalmar Nyckel is a replica of an Old World colonial ship that sailed from Sweden to the New World in 1638. The ship was originally built by the Dutch. The passengers on the Kalmar Nyckel established the first permanent European settlement in the colony of “New Sweden” (Wilmington, Delaware). It made four round-trip crossings of the Atlantic, which is more than any other ship of its era.
