Sketch by George H. Rogers, depicting Bainbridge cruising off Cuba in 1862, when the artist served on board her.
Note the dialogue written above the sketch: "Lookout at masthead - 'S-a-i-l O-h!' Officer deck - 'Where away?'. 'Three points off the Starboard bow Sir'. 'Can you make her out?'. 'No Sir'. 'Well keep a sharp lookout there'. 'Aye, Aye, Sir'"
