EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1873 engraving from the Liszt Collection showcases Admiral Schomberg's proposed new rig for men-of-war. The intricate details of this vintage print provide a glimpse into the innovative ideas that shaped naval warfare in the 19th century. The image features various elements of the proposed rig, starting with A and B representing the lower mast and trysail mast respectively. Moving on to C and D, we see the lower yard and lower topsail yard, followed by E which represents the upper topsail yard. F highlights a topmast fidded abaft, while G offers an enlarged plan of trussel trees. Lastly, H showcases fids of top and trysail masts. This historic artwork not only captures Admiral Schomberg's vision but also serves as a testament to Victorian-era illustrative techniques. The engraved image exudes a sense of nostalgia with its retro-styled aesthetic, transporting viewers back to a time when such engravings were highly valued for their artistic merit. As we admire this exquisite piece from Arkheia's collection, it is important to appreciate how it contributes to our understanding of naval history and cultural heritage. This particular engraving stands as evidence of human ingenuity in designing more efficient rigs for men-of-war during an era defined by technological advancements.
