Warship; First rate; 100-guns

Scale: unknown. A full hull model of a 100-gun, three-decker first-rate ship of the line. The model is decked, equipped and rigged. It is a typical prisoner of war model with the usual features of the type: generally accurate rigging details, though rather crudely executed, with the shape of the hull done without plans and therefore quite inaccurate. It is on a base surrounded by four bollards and in a decorated glass case that was made at the same time as the model.
