A fine portrait of the three-masted, steel-hulled, square-rigged ship BALCLUTHA. Launched in 1886 by the Charles Connell and Company shipyard near Glasgow, the BALCLUTHA is a merchant cargo ship known to have carried goods around Cape Horn 17 times. The ship survived the age of sail and now takes aboard museum visitors in San Francisco Bay as part of the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park.
