Description

Scene of a ship being broken up at a port, with a city visible opposite a body of water at right. The ship is seen in three quarters stern view and has gun-portholes, but no visible guns. There is a nameplate on the stern with the name "SWIFTSURE"; however, the "S" are reversed, a fairly common beginner's engraving error.
