dc.description.abstract | A mixture of shipbuilding, architecture, and art went into producing the wooden
decorative work aboard ships of all nations from around the late 1500s until the advent
of steam and the steel ship in the late 19th century. The leading humanists and artists in
each country were called upon to draw up the iconographic plan for a ship??s
ornamentation and to ensure that the work was done according to the ruler??s instructions.
By looking through previous research, admiralty records, archaeological examples, and
contemporary ship models, the progression of this maritime art form can be followed. | en |
