Battle of the Tall Ships

The War of 1812 saw fierce battles on the seas. In an unbelievalbe badge of courage tall ships with cannons literally would come along side one another and duel until there was a victor. This was out of my usual genre but I really enjoyed painting this scene. It was a commissioned work. The USA flag in 1812 had 15 Stars. Who do you think won this battle....hard to tell.
