Summary
[edit]DescriptionThe Emperor’s Cruiser Aoba.jpg |
English: Painting, Watercolor on Paper; by Standish Backus; 1945; Framed Dimensions 31H X 39W
Accession #: 88-186-AD Near the great Kure Naval Base lies a dozen capital ships--on the bottom. When the bottom is near the surface these ships resemble tangled briar patches as torn as they are by bombs and torpedoes. Enhancing this effect are the quantities of dead branches and latticework applied in futile attempt to camouflage. Among them is Aoba. |
