Agamemnon (1855)

A whole plate negative. A port very near broadside view, taken from only just ahead of the beam, of the 3 masted ship rigged vessel Agamemnon (1855) at moorings in Gravesend Reach, River Thames. She is rigged with double topsails to fore and main, a single topsail to the mizzen and single topgallants. Her royal yards have been sent down and some of her sails also seem to have been unbent. Tilbury is in the background. Negatives numbers G1775 and G2295 were taken on the same occasion.
