Print entitled 'The ''Carlisle Castle'', 1700 Tons Austin Cooper Commander'. The ship was built in 1868 by Green's at Blackwall for their London to Australia run. Here she flies their Blackwall line house flag at the main and is shown hove-to off a craggy coast with her passsengers and crew watching over the port rail as she picks up people, probably survivors, from a small boat. Despite the launch date of the ship the artist's monogram has the figure '53' below it, in the lower right corner of the image, which is currently inexplicable.
