Description: | An English yacht getting under way. A near view from before the starboard beam of a yacht at anchor lying nearly head to wind with her jib and foresail set and mainsail half brailed up. Her decks are crowded with people; a boat is alongside. In the right background, a ship at anchor with a Union flag at the main is firing a salute.
This drawing is rapidly drawn in pencil, possibly done on the same occasion as PAH9368; it is approximately dated by the subject.
Box Title: D48. M639-M657.
