Summary
| Description |
English: HMS 'Monarch' at Sheerness, December 1850. No. 5 of 36 (PAI0849 - PAI0884).
Detail of (Recto) Inscribed top left, 'HMS Monarch / Sheerness, Dec 1850' this was done while Mends was first lieutenant of the 'Trafalgar' at Sheerness. 'Monarch' was a 2nd-rate 84-gun two-decker laid down at Deptford Dockyard but transferred to Chatham in 1825 and launched there in 1832. She is shown here off the Sheerness jetty with what is probably a buoyage tender and/or watering vessel alongside. The steamer under her bows may be a naval picket vessel rather than a civilian passenger craft. The remnamts of a tree on the left is not part of this drawing but overspill from the adjacent page. |
