About the Item

British Sailor's Woolwork of Merchant Ship Under Full Sail, Circa 1875 The British sailor's woolie depicts a port side view of a large three-masted ship flying the Red Ensign on a flat blue sea. From the main mast flies a long red pennant or streamer. Until 1864, the Red Ensign was also the principal ensign of the Royal Navy, and as such it was worn by ships of the Red Squadron of the navy, as well as by those warships that were not assigned to any squadron (i.e., those sailing under independent command). The white ensign and the blue ensign were also used by the Royal Navy. Dimensions: 20 3/4 inches high x 25 1/2 inches wide, (51cm x 65cm). (Ref: NY10481-numr)
