US Frigate Constitution. The painting of the frigate Constitution on this month's cover is by Mr. F. V. Colson of the Boston Naval Shipyard and is reproduced with his permission.

She has appeared on the cover of the Proceedings on two previous occasions, in August 1953 in Frank Vining Smith's painting of her defeating Guerrière during the War of 1812, and in August 1954 in Corné's canvas showing her leading the attack on Tripoli under Commodore Preble on 3 August 1804.
