Note
There is also an albumen print of a wrecked steamship in two parts at right angles to each other. The vessel appears fairly small, about 500 tons and has three masts. The print is embossed 1863 but no indication of location or name of vessel is given. Low cliffs can be seen on the horizon. The vessel appears grounded, though no beach or rocks can be seen, perhaps as a result of the long exposure time.
