"Model Of The Corsair Ship "prince De Neuchatel". Wood, Textiles And Golden Copper. 20th Century."
This model is a faithful representation of the American privateer ship built in New York at the beginning of the 19th century. The model is of exceptional quality. It may be that it was built from a kit from the 70s but the multitude of excellent details leads me to believe that it is a unique work created from scratch by a virtuoso model maker. Although we know of many models of the "Prince of Neuchatel", none equals this one. There are older models in certain museums and a model, also from the 20th century but less beautifully made, was sold at Christies New York in 2006. Excellent condition. Very dusty, full of charm. Length: 114cm Height: 80cm.
