One of her two 68-pounder Pivot Guns is visible in her stern. Seagulls effortlessly skim the choppy waves, lending a lively atmosphere to the portrait. The first full-blown warship with a metal hull, the 1842 steam frigate Guadelupe. Constructed from French Naval Plans in the British shipyard of Jonathan Laird in Birkenhead, England |
