"The Confederate Blockade Runner C.S.S. Colonel Lamb at Sea" is a maritime painting by the British artist Samuel Walters (1811–1882). Walters, renowned for his detailed and realistic depictions of ships and seascapes, created this work to illustrate the drama and intensity of the American Civil War's naval engagements. The painting specifically portrays the C.S.S. Colonel Lamb, a vessel employed by the Confederate States of America to evade the Union blockade, which was a key component of the North's strategy to suffocate the Southern economy and war effort by preventing the export of cotton and the import of war supplies.

The painting captures the Colonel Lamb at sea, likely engaged in its high-stakes mission of running through the Union blockade. The ship is depicted with full sails billowing, harnessing the wind to speed through the waters, possibly under the cover of darkness or fog to avoid detection by Union blockaders. The artwork reflects the perilous nature of blockade running, a task that required fast, nimble ships and skilled, daring crews.

Samuel Walters' attention to detail in the rigging, the sea's texture, and the play of light on the water, are indicative of his mastery as a maritime artist. His works often conveyed a sense of movement and urgency, which is evident in "The Confederate Blockade Runner C.S.S. Colonel Lamb at Sea." The painting not only serves as a historical representation of a specific vessel and its role during the Civil War but also exemplifies the broader genre of maritime art in the 19th century.

As with many of Walters' paintings, this work would likely appeal to maritime historians, art collectors, and enthusiasts of naval warfare history, providing a visual window into the era's naval technology and the Southern Confederacy's efforts to sustain itself during the American Civil War. The painting is an example of Walters' contribution to the rich tradition of British maritime painting, and it continues to be of interest for both its artistic merit and its historical significance.
