A 1:48 SCALE ADMIRALTY BOARD STYLE MODEL OF THE 100 GUN FIRST-RATE SHIP OF THE LINE ROYAL WILLIAM AS REBUILT TO THE 1719 ESTABLISHMENT, THOUGHT TO BE 19TH CENTURY the hull carved below the ebonised main wale and planked and pinned over, hinged gunports with Venetian red interiors and rings, boarding ladder with canopied admiral’s entrance, chainplates with deadeyes, carved giltwood double equestrian figurehead, giltwood stern carvings, pierced and carved balconies with ‘WR’ monogram, glazed windows and quarter lights, painted decorative bulwarks, catheads with sheaths, roundhouses, planked decks with gratings, stovepipe, belfry, capstan with spars, spare masts, poop deck with companionways and double helm under, bound masts with yards, fighting tops, standing and running rigging with carved blocks and tackle, loosely mounted on ebonised cradle stand with name, overall measurements -- 53 x 60 x 25in. (134.5 x 152.5 x 63.5cm.) Provenance: Deaccessioned from the Russell-Cotes Museum, Bournemouth, 2021; Understood to have been sent from India to the Museum in the 1920s.Footnote: Designed and built at Chatham under the direction of Sir Phineas Pett, great-nephew of the builder of Charles I’s fabled Sovereign of the Seas, the Prince was one of three first rates dating from 1670, all of which were laid down to replace the capital ships destroyed or captured by the Dutch during their infamous raid on the Medway in June 1667. Prince was measured at 1,395 tons and was 167 feet in length with a 45 foot beam. Mounting 100 guns, she was powerful as well as handsome, and was first commissioned in 1672, on the outbreak of the Third [and last] Anglo-Dutch War. Her then lieutenant – later her captain – Sir John Narbrough called her “a great and brave-contrived ship” and found that she “wrought very well in staying and bearing up, and steereth mighty well.” Throughout the Third Dutch War (1672-74), Prince acted as flagship for several high-ranking officers including the Duke of York, the King’s brother and the future James II, and thereby attracted the enemy’s special attention. At the battle of the Texel (11th August 1673) she was subjected to a particularly determined assault by a group of Dutch ships and barely avoided destruction in what proved an epic fight that soon became the stuff of legend within the Royal Navy. Extensively rebuilt at Chatham in 1691-2, which increased her beam to 47 feet 10ins., she was renamed Royal William upon completion of the work and saw her first action under her new name at Barfleur on 19th May 1692; this and the even more decisive action at La Hogue a few days later effectively ended French naval superiority in the Channel and thereby greatly influenced the successful outcome of the so-called ‘War of the English Succession’ (1689-97). Rebuilt a second time in 1719, this essentially new ship – but one which incorporated all the usable parts of the original Prince – then achieved her own fame by her remarkable longevity. After participating in the capture of the great Canadian fortress of Louisburg in 1758 and then the city of Quebec the following year, she was last in action at the battle off Cape Spartel when Lord Howe defeated a large Franco-Spanish fleet on 20th October 1782. Hulked in 1790, “Old Billy”, as she had become affectionately known, was finally broken up in 1813 at which time her ancient timbers were said to be “tough enough to turn the strongest nails.”Condition report: Overall wear and losses to paint and rigging with some loose parts on deck.

AN EXCEPTIONAL 1:72 SCALE MODEL OF THE 50 GUN SALISBURY CLASS SHIP CENTURION [1774] the 24in. planked hull copper sheathed below the waterline, ebonised main and secondary wales, open gunports, guns and rings, finely carved full-length Roman Centurion figurehead, glazed stern with balcony and quarter galleries, metal anchors with bound wooden stocks, chainplates and deadeyes, planked decks with fittings including gratings, bitts, stovepipe, belfry, well deck with capstan and three fully fitted ships’ boats over, hammock nets, companionways, binnacle box with chimney, rigged double helm, deck light, shot racks, bound masts with bracing, yards with stuns’l booms and furled stitched linen sails, fighting tops, standing and running rigging with blocks and tackle and much other fine detailing. Mounted on 2 turned brass columns within wooden plexiglass case, overall measurements -- 36½ x 45½ x 16½in. (90 x 115.5 x 42cm.)Footnote: During the late 1760s, increasing colonial unrest prompted the Admiralty to expand the Royal Navy’s capabilities, most notably with the building of numerous 3rd and 4th Rate ships-of-the-line. The 4th Rate H.M.S. Centurion was one such vessel and, having been ordered on Christmas Day 1770, she was laid down in Barnard’s yard at Harwich in May 1771. Constructed to a well-tried design by Surveyor Thomas Slade, she was measured at 1,044 tons and mounted 50 guns of varying calibre, principally a volley of 24-pounders on her main gundeck. With an overall length of 146 feet and a 40½ foot beam, her dimensions were fairly standard for her tonnage and, after three years on the stocks, she was launched on 27th May, 1774. Fitted out and completed for sea just as the American War of Independence was gathering momentum, she was hastily commissioned with a crew of 350 officers and men and sent to join the fleet standing off the eastern seaboard of the United States. Joining Sir Peter Parker’s squadron of five 50-gun ships, Centurion’s first taste of action came on 8th December, 1776 when she assisted with the assault and capture of Rhode Island and Narragansett Bay, both places seen as vital to British interests. By July 1778 she was under Lord Howe’s command in the operations off the same stretch of coast and was part of the large fleet which narrowly missed clashing with a French fleet on 11th August and several succeeding days. Once France had joined the war in support of the colonists’ cause, much of the seaborne activity shifted to the immensely rich sugar islands of the West Indies, the scene of so many Anglo-French naval engagements during the second half of the 18th century. Beginning with the encounter between Rear-Admiral Barrington’s fleet and a French squadron off St. Lucia on 15th December, 1778, which resulted in the capture of that island 15 days later, Centurion thereafter played major roles in several actions and was even on hand to witness one of the last naval encounters of the war when H.M.S. Hussar engaged and captured the French frigate Sibylle off Cape Henry, Virginia, on 22nd January, 1783. Laid up for most of the following decade, Centurion was sent to the Indian Ocean early in 1794 after the outbreak of war with Revolutionary France and participated in several significant engagements across Eastern Waters during the final years of the old century, one of which brought her captain £15,000 in prize money. Her final action was undoubtedly her most spirited when, on 18th September, 1804, she was attacked by the French ‘74’ Marengo, together with two frigates mounting 76 guns between them, whilst lying in the Vizagapatam Roads [off the east coast of India] waiting to escort a merchant convoy to Madras. Despite the 3-to-1 odds stacked against her, Centurion put up a magnificent fight and, after a furious engagement lasting six hours, the French withdrew to lick their wounds leaving the convoy scattered but safe. Centurion herself was seriously damaged, however, which might explain the decision to hulk her for harbour duties in 1808, thus bringing what appeared to be a somewhat premature end to her seagoing career. Eventually finishing up at Halifax, Nova Scotia, she served as a hospital ship until she sank at her moorings on 21st February, 1824, after which she was raised and broken up.Condition report: Fine overall condition.
