This illustration shows 'Vaisseau Anglais de 74 desempare apres un combat. Dessinee d'apres nature et gravee par Baugen, 1814', which translates as the British 74 gun ship, disabled after action, drawn from life and engraved by Baugen.

It is a page from a French collection of sketches and engravings of all types of naval and merchant ships, navigating the ocean and Mediterranean, from 1814 - the 'Collection de toutes les especes de batimens de guerre et de batimens marchands qui naviguent sur l 'ocean et dans la Mediterranee'.
