Si tratta di un veliero che trovò notevole diffusione tra il XVI e il XVIII secolo, molto utilizzato per scopi commerciali e grazie alle sue caratteristiche poteva essere facilmente equipaggiato per difendere convogli commerciali dai frequenti attacchi dei pirati.
Il termine brigantino è di origine italiana e deriva da “brigante”, nel significato di “componente di una brigata”: infatti nel ‘400 e nel ‘500 il brigantino era utilizzato frequentemente come unità per la guerra di corsa e la pirateria.
Il brigantino venne molto utilizzato come cargo o nave di scorta, ed ebbe grande diffusione nel Mar Mediterraneo e nell’Europa del nord.
Il modellismo navale nasce per motivi religiosi. Non contento della banalità della propria vita l’uomo ne vuole un’altra e per di più eterna, ma l’anima – per definizione immateriale – ha bisogno di un mezzo per raggiungere l’aldilà; deve attraversare un fiume, e per farlo ha bisogno di una barca. Il più antico modello è un’imbarcazione d’argento di una sessantina di centimetri trovata negli scavi di Ur in Mesopotamia, l’odierno Iraq, e risale al 2.000 a.C. Il modellismo rinasce nel XV secolo sempre per motivi religiosi, ma questa volta come ex-voto, anche se i modelli più importanti e preziosi erano quelli costruiti dai cantieri navali: infatti fino al XVII secolo le navi non venivano progettate con un disegno; si decideva lunghezza, larghezza, alberi, armamento e poi ci si affidava a un cantiere navale di fiducia che “a occhio” costruiva la nave secondo le istruzioni ricevute. Per convincere il sovrano o il ministro che doveva finanziare la costruzione era però necessario fargli vedere qualcosa, e per mostrargli come sarebbe stata la nave si costruiva allora un modello spesso di grandi dimensioni, e quanto più era ben fatto tanto meglio rispondeva al marketing del tempo; spesso il re si innamorava del modello e lo teneva per sé, ed è per questo che molti di questi modelli sono giunti sino a noi.

Located in LA CIOTAT, FR
This stunning handcrafted model represents the H.M.S. Bounty, a historic ship famously launched in 1787. The replica is meticulously crafted from walnut, showcasing incredible attention to detail and the artistry of traditional shipbuilding techniques. The wooden hull is smooth and polished, with planking and fittings that echo the original design of the Bounty, emphasizing authenticity.
The rigging is finely executed with taut strings that replicate the intricate web of lines and pulleys used on the actual vessel.
