About this work

This hand-coloured engraving by Edward Duncan, dated 1842, shows a crowded naval procession on choppy water, with tall-masted sailing ships and paddle steamers flying union flags and bunting. In the foreground a rowing boat with oarsmen moves past the vessels, and the caption records the royal George yacht conveying the Queen and Prince Albert to Edinburgh in August 1842, joined by General Steam Navigation Company ships.
