The Eclipse, believed - at 112 tons burden - to be Jersey's largest cutter, was built in F.C. Clarke's Black Rock yard at West Park, St. Helier, and launched on 2nd April 1852. First owned by Thomas de Faye, a prominent Jersey shipowner whose business interests flourished between 1846 and 1885, she traded out of St. Helier to the French coast although her lifespan and eventual fate are so far unrecorded.

Licensing edit

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1885, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
