Giralda (1897)

A 12x10 negative. A port broadside view of two coastal type spritsail rigged sailing barges racing in the Thames estuary. The identity is in doubt. The barge on the right is said to be the Giralda (1897) but the bob she is flying is not that of J R Piper or F D Lambert who were her owners during her racing career. The barge on the left is also not flying the correct bob.
