| Description |
English: (Recto) The southern part of Mulah Bay (Vourla/ Urla Bay), near Smyrna (Izmir), Turkey (continued from PAI0874); (Verso) Port Mandri, Greece, 2 October 1852 No. 27 of 36 (PAI0849 - PAI0884). (Recto) The southern part of Urla Bay, on the Turkish coast, continued from the verso of the previous page, PAI0874. Inscribed below the two grey-faced peaks to the left 'Brothers' and to the right 'Point Glazomene'. On the right the form of a ship in port bow view has been lightly drawn in but not coloured. (Verso) A watercolour view into a bay, with a sprit-rigged boat with a dark red sail, similar to a sacoulevi, on the right. There is a distinctive conical hill on the far shore, with another (unfinished) small boat to its left. It is inscribed lower left, ‘Port Mandri, Greece / October 2nd 52’. This harbour is about five sea miles north of Cape Sounion on the east side of Attica, sheltered to seaward by the island of Macronisi. Admiralty sailing directions of 1841 describe it as safe in gales from north and south with ‘room enough for nine or ten sail of frigates’ to anchor. |
