Hand-coloured.; Technique includes engraving. The Buckingham is shown in the centre foreground. This is the best of the engravings in the National Maritime Museum, of Swaine's picture. Engravings by J.Smith, Goldar and P.Benazech are less good. Although the last, by Benazech, is larger and therefore in some ways more clear.
