I am a retired antiques dealer who is slowly disposing of his stock through Ebay. This is an original Edwardian Pen and Ink drawing of the Russian 2nd Pacific fleet gathering in St Petersburg before sailing for the Russian/Japanese War in 1904. The cruisers represented are Izumrud, Oleg, Rion, Dnieper and Terek. It is by the naval artist FL Blanchard and is of a high standard. It is signed by the artist and is dated 1904. It is on cartridge paper and is mounted but unframed. The size is 39cm x 17cm. There is some damage to the upper right corner which does not affect the drawing (see photo). B 225
