Entry

Polychromed wooden half bracket model of the starboard side of a three-masted ship, mounted on a rectangular wooden backboard.

The side of the ship is depicted by ribbands attached to frame moulds. The model does not indicate the forecastle, whereas the quarterdeck is outlined by ribbands with square hances. The sheer rises slightly towards the stern. Two wales and a sheer rail are indicated and are painted black. The bow features an empty beakhead with two cheeks positioned directly on the beakhead, a beakhead bulkhead and part of the beakhead platform. The stern has a round tuck and a hollow counter. The model does not have a taffrail, quarter galleries or a rudder. The hull is round and painted white below the waterline. The position of three masts and the bowsprit is shown in a truncated form.

Scale unknown.
