Image description

Full title: "Bombardment and Capture of Fort Henry, Tenn. By the Federal Gunboats, under command of Commodore Andrew H. Foote - Feby. 6th 1862." Depicts the seven ironclad gunboats of Foote: Cincinnati, St. Louis, Carondelet, Essex, Lexington, Conestoga, and Tyler. The 14 smokestacks, 2 for each ship, billow black smoke as the orange blasts of cannons hit the earthen fort. Cannon shots from Fort Henry hit the water in front of the ships.
