A starboard bow view of the ‘Lord Lowther’, shown leaving the harbour of Prince of Wales Island on the left. Two indigenous craft with figures are present on the left in the foreground. Two large sailing vessels in the right background. Coloured aquatint by Edward Duncan, after William John Huggins.
