Charley, there are indeed many, many photos and paintings of the ship, probably mainly due to promotions of her as a tourist attraction, but also because something about the Bounty seemed to capture a lost sense of adventure and freedom that you just don't see in a powered seacraft. Looking at the many photos, I was impressed with the craftsmanship given to her building and decoration, and her graceful appearance under sail, and even at anchor. A thing that has the handwork of so many humans in it seems to take on a human aspect of its own. She looked as though she had a soul.
