Description
English: Ratvizan (captured 1790)

Scale: 1:48. Plan showing the body plan with stern board outline, sheer lines with inboard detail, and longitudinal half-breadth for Ratvizan (captured 1790), a Russian 62-gun Third Rate, two-decker, as taken off at Chatham Dockyard, January 1796. The plan includes a table of masts and spars.

The ship was of interest to Britain because she had originally been Swedish, designed by Frederick af Chapman. She was taken by Russia in 1790 and came over as part of the Russian squadron to support Britain's blockade of France.

Signed by Edward Sison [Master Shipwright, Chatham Dockyard, 1795-1801].

[edit]
This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
