The Dove, Maryland

Lithograph Print

25 x 19"

Celebrate the spirit of early American history with this beautiful fine art print of the "Dove", one of Maryland’s most iconic colonial ships. A perfect addition to any nautical art collection, this historic sailing ship print blends maritime heritage with timeless coastal elegance—ideal for Annapolis marine décor, Chesapeake Bay homes, and lovers of colonial American history.

The Dove sailed alongside the Ark of Maryland in 1634, carrying settlers across the Atlantic to establish the new colony of Maryland. Smaller and more agile than its companion ship, the Dove played a vital role in transporting passengers and supplies on this historic voyage. Under the vision of Cecil Calvert, these ships represented hope, religious freedom, and the pursuit of a new life. Their journey concluded at St. Clement’s Island, where Maryland’s story officially began.

This museum-quality maritime art print captures the elegance and historical importance of the Dove, making it a meaningful focal point in any coastal home décor, office, or waterfront retreat. Its connection to Annapolis and the Chesapeake Bay region makes it especially appealing for local collectors and those drawn to the rich traditions of the sea.
