'BRITANNIA' BRITISH SAILING WARSHIP MODEL
Our picture shows the decks of the
Britannia,' the first British ship of that
name, associated with the battles of Barfleur
and La Hogue, 1692. In this model, which
is in the Metropolitan Museum, New York,
the half-deck and poop are not completely
planked over, in order to show the con-
struction beneath. The way in which the
enrichment of a great ship of this time was
carried even to its less conspicuous parts is
beautifully shown. not only in the bulk-
heads, but also in the graceful stairs, and
the typical carved human heads, Those at
each side of the bowsprit are still per-
petuated in the term Knight-heads,
