Tallis. Cutting out of the Corvette La Chevrette. Engraving c1856

by John Tallis & Company

Antique print of action-packed naval attack on deck of ship.

Original steel engraving published in London circa 1850 by the famous Tallis publishing house, at this time called the London Printing & Publishing Company. This is a finely embellished engraving for a series of scenes of great Naval and Military battles fought by the English.

The colour has been added at a later date but it certainly adds to the definition and the appreciation of this action-packed scene.

The page size is: 7" x 10.1/2" or 18 x 27cm
