Footnotes

Provenance
With Martyn Gregory, London.

A note on the reverse of the frame suggests that this work is likely to be a study for Captain Marryat's book Poor Jack (London, 1840). The book was illustrated with engravings after Clarkson Stanfield, and there is an episode in which Jack's ship is taken by French privateers.
