Description
English: Cutter yacht Julia, R.Y.S. 111 Tons, off the No Man Buoy in the Match for the Royal Yacht Squadron Cup August 19th 1853

A hand-coloured, lithograph print of the cutter yacht Julia. The scene depicts a cutter in profile with her white sails open, with four cutters in the background. The sea is green and the sky has white and grey clouds against a pale blue sky.

The Julia was a well known squadron cutter of the 1850s. The incident depicted in the print shows Julia's defeat of the American sloop Sylvie, which came over in 1853 to challenge anything in Europe, except the America, for "any sum of money or for the honour of the American flag". The race created great interest as the new Swedish schooner, Aurora Borealis, also competed.
