Despite efforts to seal the frames, the sea enters and works its own change on the art.

Andeas Franke tried a different approach this time, staging involved set photography with period Rococo costumes which were then
superimposed on imagery from the wreck itself. The images were printed, sealed in frames (sort of) and mounted on the wreck.

Dave Sirak, Joe Weatherby and the guys really excelled both in sinking this vessel and in capturing what went on through numerous
cameras to the point that they won an Emmy! More imagery of the Mohawk on its way to the bottom at:
