This print showcases the formidable fifty-eight gun frigate of the French navy, poised for battle with its gun ports raised. The image, taken from XVIII Siecle Institutions, Usages et Costumes and published in 1875, offers a glimpse into the naval prowess of the era. Crafted by an anonymous French School artist from the 19th century, this lithograph now resides in a private collection. The sheer power and grandeur of this battleship is evident as it sails through turbulent waters. Its majestic figurehead stands tall at the bow, exuding strength and determination. With its billowing sails catching wind and mast towering above, this vessel commands attention on both land and sea.

It serves as a reminder of our rich maritime heritage and pays homage to those who bravely sailed these treacherous seas in defense of their nations.
