НазваниеThe Great Britain en route to San Francisco
ОписаниеPainting on wooden board, in the naive style of seaman's craft or paintings on the inside lid of seamen's chests, with simple hand-crafted wooden frame.
The painting shows a starboard profile of the Great Britain under sail after her conversion to a fully-rigged ship. No funnel is visible which indicates that the image represents the ship after her refit to a sailing vessel in 1882. She operated as a sailing vessel from 1882 - 86, carrying cargo between the UK (coal from South Wales) to Panama and San Francisco (grain back to the UK).
Another large sailing vessel is visible in the background on the left side. there is a small boat in the foreground with a flag which reads 'Liverpool'.
