The Experimental Brigs. H.M. Brig Daring, 12 Guns. Constructed by Mr. Joseph White. [Background ships named below image.]
H.J. Vernon, lith: Day & Haghe, lithrs. to the Queen.
Portsmouth, A. Hinton _ London, Ackermann & Co. Strand, and Foster, Fenchurch Street [n.d., c.1845].
Tinted lithograph with blue added by hand, image 260 x 370mm. 10¼ x 14½". Crease in upper right corner of image.
HMS Daring was a 12 gun-brig of the Royal Navy built in Portsmouth Dockyard in 1844. She formed part of the 1844 Experimental Brig Squadron. The Experimental Squadrons of the Royal Navy were groups of ships sent out in the 1830s and 1840s to test new techniques of ship design, armament, building and propulsion against old ones. They came about as a result of conflict between the 'empirical' school of shipbuilding (led by William Symonds, Surveyor of the Navy), the 'scientific' school led by the first School of Naval Architecture (closed in 1832), and the 'traditional' school led by Master Shipwrights from the Royal Dockyards.

H.M. Brigantine, Dolphin, 3 Guns.
H. John Vernon, del. et lith. Day & Haghe Lithrs to the Queen.
London, Published by W. Foster, 114, Fenchurch St. [n.d., c.1852.]
Rare tinted lithograph with hand colour. Image 195 x 275mm (7¾ x 10¾"). Gallery label stuck on reverse.
'Dolphin' , 319 tons, launched at Sheerness Dockyard in 1836, was assigned to anti-slavery patrols, on the West African coast from September 1837 to October 1842, on the south-east coast of America May 1843 to March 1847, then back to Africa September 1847 until at least 1854. From 1861 to 1871 it was in Customs service at home and it was broken-up in 1894. Although there is no accompanying information, it has been suggested the scene shows 'Dolphin' taking the American slaver 'Mary Adeline' off the Congo in 1852, with the brig opening fire on a schooner whose mizzen driver is collapsing. However this does not tally with the only report in English newspapers for 1852, which told how 'Dolphin' saved 'Mary Adeline' from looting by the locals when it ran aground in the mouth of the Congo on 19 June. Certainly in this view 'Dolphin' is firing on the schooner.
