Description

Shows a schooner (or possibly a brig) with sails furled, flag at stern; possibly the Elizabeth.

The suggestion that the ship may be the schooner Elizabeth is based on its similarity to the image of the Elizabeth in Heaphy's Wellington watercolour Thorndon flat April 1841 (C-025-010).

Probably drawn while Heaphy was resident in Auckland during the 1850s
