National Maritime Museum Caird Collection, 1937, Cat No. 1743-2; de-accessioned 1993 and sold: Sotheby's, Marine Pictures and Nautical Works of Art, 16th July 1993 lot 444; Kriegstein Collection; with Hyland Granby Antiques; Private European Collection.Literature: Waite, A.H. National Maritime Museum Catalogue of Ship Models to 1815. H.M.S.O. circa 1970., p.95 where notes read The model is probably the work of an 18th century amateur craftsman but the proportions are reasonably good. Its general appearance, disposition of the gun-ports etc. suggests a 24 gun, 6th Rate of the 1741 Establishment, but the hull is a little too fine to represent an actual ship. The rigging is probably 19th century but although on the heavy side it is approximately correct for the period.
