The Russian frigate 'Shtandart' (homeport St. Petersburg) while moored at Middelburg, Zeeland, The Netherlands. The 'Shtandart' is a replica of the, in 1703 built, original 'Shtandart'. The replica made her maiden trip in 2000.

Hope you'll like this image. Thanks in advance for your comment.

Vry interesting photo Cornelius. So this is how the ship built in 1703 looked like. I wonder what routes/voyages she sailed on. Thanks for sharing.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

A classic ship and image. The first ship to visit Australia was the Dutch ship Duyfken, which arrived 164 years before Captain Cook. Nearly 400 years later a full scale working replica was built in Western Australia. You might be interested in the web site Cornelius - http://www.duyfken.com/

Jammer dat je hem zo klein ziet, want het is zo'n
prachtig mooi schip, als je het uitvergroot in zijn
'volle' glory !

You would have a job beating this one for colours so vivid but so natural at the sane time and the detail plus presentation is perfect .I am luck to say that I do get the chance to see lovely ships like this when on holiday in Cornwall the UK but never with such beautiful pant work as this ship.
