Destruction of the French Frigates Arianne & Andromache 22nd May 1812. Page 161

Technique includes pen and ink. This relates to PAD5815, but the high quaility suggests rather than being 'after' that it is a watercolour version by Whitcombe, possibly for making the print from the oil then in possession of Henry Hotham, captain of the 'Northumberland' (right). [PvdM 7/05]
