by Harper's Weekly

Antique engraving of yacht race at The Regatta of the Eastern Yacht Club, off Marblehead, Massachusetts - drawn by Schell and Hogan. Wonderful old racing yachts Mayflower, Puritan and Priscilla.

Original wood engraving from a drawing by Frederick B. Schell (1838-1905) who often worked with Hogan as a topographical illustrator. Published in New York circa 1886. This engraving would have been printed in black ink. It has additional early hand-tinting with watercolor, which certainly adds beauty to the scene.

The engraving has been mounted in 'antique white' conservation mattboard with watercolour and linework embellishment, and covered in cellophane for handling protection. The engraving within the window measures 245 x 355mm (approximately 10 x 14 inches). External measurement of mount for framing is 400 x 510mm (approx.15.75 x 20 inches).
