Description

Uncolored etching depicting a single-masted yacht in three-quarters view. The mast is incomplete and the rigging and sails are not depicted. The ship is at sea. The stern, which is closest to the viewer, bears a large fleur de lys motif under which is printed the number "1612" or "1672". The title and artist information is printed in the lower margin. Illustration from John Charnock's An History of Marine Architecture, 1802, Vol. III, page 188.
