Onto something which Baltimore is well-know for, Ft. McHenry, the birthplace of The Star Spangled Banner. This is a reproduction of an oil painting by Helen A. F. Penniman.
"The monument is that to the commanding officer at that time, Col. George W. Armistead, and the cannon date from the sixties."
