Description: | See also PAH3345. These three friezes of figures are all broadly classical, including many embodying such subjects as architecture, the arts, mathematics, navigation, geography, astronomy, and carrying emblems appropriate to those topics. The paper is acidified. According to the 1922 catalogue of the Naval Gallery in the Painted Hall of Greenwich Hospital, this drawing and the similar one, now PAH3345, were presented to the Hospital by the Revd. M. T. Cox of Badby, Northants: the date is not given but was presumably in the 19th century.
