A port-broadside view of the schooner yacht 'Rosalind' owned by Lord Alfred Paget, Commodore of the Thames Yacht Club. Although she technically finished second in the Royal Thames Yacht Club Match of June 1, 1853, she was declared the winner when the yacht 'Sverige' was deprived of her victory after a captain accused her of foul sailing.
