Cuzco (1871)

A whole plate negative of a painting of the passenger liner Cuzco (1871) under way at sea in relatively calm waters. The ship is seen from off her starboard broadside, is barque rigged and has a standard outfit of sails set, except for the main course. The painting is said to represent the ship as she would have appeared in October 1885. A duplicate of negative number G10. The emulsion has peeled off the original negative which has been discarded but a 12x10 photographic print produced in the 1950s is available for scanning.
