Model of Saint John, third-rate ship of the line, 64 guns, of the Order of Malta fleet. The model is contemporary to the ship, last decade of the 18th century.

She was captured by the French in 1798 while still under construction, then renamed Athenien and varata.

In 1800, after the English siege of Malta, she was captured in the port of Valletta and became HMS Athenienne, taking part in various naval actions.

In 1806, she crashed on the Sicilian Channel on the shore of Skerki and sank before most of the crew could reach safety. 347 people lost their lives, including Commander Raynsford, and 141 were rescued.

Today, the model is in the Maritime Museum of Malta.

Found this beauty recently but I'm not familiar with ships. Would anyone happen to know what type it is?

HMS Cornwallis model

This contemporary ship model of HMS Cornwallis is located in the All Hands children's gallery at the National Maritime Museum Greenwich. I missed it the other times I went because I didn't think to look there.

Fitzjames served on the Cornwallis from 1841-1843 during the First Opium War in China. This ship model was made from the same wood that was used for the actual ship and made by the shipbuilder himself in 1813.
