The Star of India is the world's oldest active ship. Moored in the San Diego Bay, it is one of the show pieces of the San Diego Maritime Museum. She first set sail in 1863 at a time when iron hulled ships were a design experiment. She has been described as "the essence of a vanished age, a glorious time when men and women voyaged under towers of masts and clouds of canvas." I think this shot captures her essence.
