GEOFF HUNT, P.P.R.S.M.A. (British, Contemporary)

"Spithead Anchorage - Ships and Vessels of Captain Aubrey's Navy"

A wonderful chance to visualise some of the ships associated with Patrick O'Brian's naval hero Captain Aubrey.

From left to right we see: Ariel, 18- gun sloop ("The Surgeon's Mate"); Polychrest, experimental 24-gun sloop ("Post Captain"); in the foreground Leopard, 50-gun fourth-rate ("Desolation Island"); Boadicea, 38-gun frigate ("The Mauritius Command"); Ringle, Baltimore-built armed schooner ("The Commodore" etc).

The ships are gathered at Spithead, just off Portsmouth; our high view point allows us to look down-Solent with the Isle of Wight in the distance.
