Description
English: The Pearl Commodore The Marquis of Anglesea, K G - Royal Welsh Yacht Club, Carnarvon. Pubd in Hunt's Yachting Magazine Dec 1852

Lithograph. Monochrome print of the Marquis of Anglesey's racing cutter, Pearl (1819). She is shown from her port side underway in the Menai straits with crew working at the mainsail. Other figures are gathered at the foredeck. The water is choppy and the sky full of dark, racing clouds. Immediately behind Pearl, the medieval walls and the town of Caernarfon can be seen against distant hills. She is towing a rowing dinghy and flies the ensign of the Royal Welsh Yacht Club from the stern rigging with two Marryat code signal flags from the top of the mast. In the forground in the water is a small mooring or marker buoy.
