</p><p>The print is hand-coloured and framed and reproduces Lynn's original oil painting of the same subject, BHC3686, though with a fourth ship's bow on the far right. The 'Vernon' in the centre flies the pre-1843 Wigram &amp; Green house flag, with (presumably) the 'Edinburgh' on the left and 'Blenheim' on the right. See also PAH9327 and PAH9330 for information on, and other images of, the 'Vernon', built in 1838. There is another print (PAI9595) of the 'Vernon', in the NMM collection.<br></p>
