Patrick Hand Posted December 10, 2006 Posted December 10, 2006 I was trying to look-up some info on a Howard Pyle painting, and found this site.... NYPL Digital Gallery Lots of fun (but not period accurate) pictures of Pyrates......
Quartermaster James Posted December 10, 2006 Posted December 10, 2006 Tres cool! Thanks for the link!
Tall Paul Posted December 11, 2006 Posted December 11, 2006 Thank you Patrick, that is a first rate resource for pirate pictures. Ans when you start looking at the other caegories, like "ships" and "Sailors" it keeps getting better. Cpt "Tall Paul" Adams Colchester Historical Enactment Society (C.H.E.S.)
Red Maria Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Great Pictures Patrick! Thanks for sharing :)
Coastie04 Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Those are great!!! I do like the ships they have in that as well. Some are period (not to GAoP, but to say the civil war). I really liked the one titled: Night chase of the brigantine slaver "Windward," by H.M. steam-sloop "Alecto." You can just feel the slaver driving his ship to the breaking point. In that wind, they even have the stuns'l booms out and ready to go. Coastie She was bigger and faster when under full sail With a gale on the beam and the seas o'er the rail
