Breaking up of the Agamemnon

Francis Seymour Haden

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image of a large ship being broken up on a body of water. The ship sits on the right side of the image, in the center, with the bow facing left. The ship has three masts, though the sails are not visible. The hull of the ship has been partially torn apart. There are several boats to the left and in front of the ship. In the background, there are buildings, another large ship on the left, and several smaller boats. The sky is cloudy. The image is a sketch-like drawing with many lines. It is signed "Seymour Haden" in the bottom left corner.
