"Wooden sailing ships carried our adventurous forefathers across all the oceans and as far as Australia and New Zealand. What was it like to put up with such cramped conditions for months on end? What prompted our forebears to brave the cold North Atlantic? Basil Greenhill takes first-hand contemporary accounts, and numerous illustrations, many of them previously unpublished, to bring to life these hazardous early voyages. He deals principally with the development of the sailing ship and steamship in the nineteenth century, and delightfully portrays by both illustration and anecodote the gradual amelioration of facilities, accommodation and food on board. The days when the wealthy took their own furniture abroad, and the livestock, required for food on the voyage, were kept on deck, gradually change; the all-purpose saloons became libraries and music rooms, the wooden partitions give way to luxurious staterooms. And so the sailing ship becomes first a steamship, then a paddle steamer and finally a great ocean-going 'travelling palace'. By 1890 the interior decoration of passenger liners moved from the extravagant to the absurd. The photographs, rich in high Victoriana, have been selected from the National Maritime Museum's collection. This is a book which will be of interest to social historians and all those with a love of the sea, both naval and domestic, and those interested in Victoriana and interior design." --

This book is a detailed comparative study of the decorative work _ figurehead, topside ornamentation and stern gallery design _ carried by the ships of the major maritime states of Europe in the zenith of the sailing era. It covers both warships and the most prestigious merchant ships, the East Indiamen of the great chartered companies. The work began life in the year 2000 when the author was commissioned to carry out research for an ambitious project to build a full-size replica of a Swedish East Indiaman, which produced a corpus of information whose relevance stretched way beyond the immediate requirements of accurately decorating the replica.??In tracking the artistic influences on European ship decoration, it became clear that this was essentially the story of the baroque style, its dissemination from France, and its gradual transformation into distinct national variations in Britain, the Netherlands, Denmark and Sweden. It is an inherently visual subject and the book illustrates developments with numerous photographs of contemporary ship models, paintings and plans, as well as the author's own interpretive illustrations of details.??As the first major work on the topic for nearly a century, it will be of obvious appeal to ship modellers and historians, but with comparative examples drawn from architecture and sculpture, it also makes a broader contribution to the history of the applied arts.
