Clary Ray

Clary Ray was the first of three artists (also including R.G. Skerrett and F. Muller) who created ship paintings during the 1890s and early 1900s for use in the documentary series "Official Records of the Union and Confederate Navies in the War of the Rebellion". Many of his works, primarily monotoned wash drawings, are still in the custody of the Navy Art Collection, Washington, D.C. The Clary Ray paintings that are dated were made between 1894 and 1898. Others may have been made as late as 1900.
