Britania

A sketch of a sailing yacht with a large, angled mainsail and a jib, cutting through water. The drawing is detailed, showing the lines of the sails and the hull, with several small figures visible on the deck. The artist's signature is at the bottom right corner. The paper appears aged with a torn left edge.
