Description: | Scale: 1:48. Plan showing the body plan with some decoration detail, sheer lines with stern quarter detail and figurehead, and longitudinal half-breadth for Royal Sovereign (1637), a 102-gun First Rate, three-decker. The plan refers to the ship as the Royal Sovereign, despite providing a build date of 1637 when she would have been known as Sovereign of the Seas. Compared to the depiction of the stern by the elder Van de Velde, the plan illustrates the ship as she was originally built, rather than as she was re-built in 1659-1660.
