Description: | ?Drawing of a light ship without Guns?
An English ship viewed from the port bow, with a ship on top of a wave with the wind on the port quarter; under mizzen, fore and main topsails and fore course half clewed up. Her gundeck ports are closed.
Inscribed in probably an 18th century hand, ?Drawing of a light ship without Guns?.
This is an unsigned pencil drawing by the Younger, drawn in soft rapid pencil. It is lightly rubbed on the back and may have had an offset taken from it. It has been very approximately dated by the style.
