Description: Original Antique French LITHOGRAPH 1820-1840, SHIP - CUTTER - COTRE This is a nice example of early lithography in France and looks back romantically to the rebuilding of the French navy at the end of the 18th century and the early 19th century. The renewal of the French Navy after the Seven Years' War was responsible for the commission of many new naval constructions, in particular, the building of a series of large cutters, begun in 1779, some measuring 75 feet in length, bearing 14 guns and others measuring 81 feet in length, armed with 18 6-pdr guns. The last image (in color) is of a model the Cotre named Le Cerf (The Deer) built by Denys in Saint Malo between 1779 and 1780.
