The royal yacht 'Royal Escape'
Summary
The Royal Escape Close-Hauled in a Breeze.
The royal yacht Royal Escape appears in the right foreground, seen from before the starboard beam. She flies a red ensign, jack and the common pendant of a man-of-war at the masthead. A two-decker is visible at anchor in the left background, seen almost in stern view and a little on the starboard quarter. A small sprit-rigged vessel, close-hauled on the port tack, occupies the right background, while several other ships are visible in the distance.
