 A Short History of the Ship

Built by the Amsterdam Admiralty circa 1665, Schager Roos (Rose of Schagen, a small town in Holland) was typical of early frigates of the Anglo-Dutch wars. Tafferel depicts Hercules behind a rose shield, with a mural under the counter of David beheading Goliath.  Original ship model design from contemporary drawings by Van de Velde. Fully masted and rigged. Constructed plank-on-frame, with Peruvian walnut planking, pearwood fittings and boxwood carvings, finished in oil paints, gold leaf and tung oil varnish.
