A starboard view, just aft of the broadside, of the three-masted barque Gunvor (1895) aground on rocks below Black Head and near Pedn Boar. The photograph was taken from a lower position than negative G13994 on cliffs of Black Head. Most of the sails are set on fore and main masts, as well as three jibs. Only the mizzen sails, royals and top-gallant sails are not set. The Gunvor is very low in the water, listing to port with water washing over the waist between the main and foremasts and onto the forecastle deck. The cliffs of Pedn Boar are in the background.

The Gunvor (1895) was on passage from Caleta Buena, Chile for Falmouth with a cargo of nitrates, when she went ashore just before midnight on 5 April 1912. The ship was so close to the cliffs that the crew were able to lower a rope from the bowsprit and get onto the rocks. The cabin boy missed his hold and fell in but was rescued by the chief officer. The Times reported that all the nitrate dissolved and the empty bags were floating out of the ship [The Times, 11 April 1912, p.19]. The ship was reported to have broken its back late on Saturday 6 April 1921 [Western Daily Mercury, Monday 8 April 1912] and, by mid-day the same day, the main royal mast had snapped [Cornishman, Thursday 11 April 1912].
