Description
English: Clifford, Henry; The Steamship 'Great Eastern' in a Choppy Sea; National Maritime Museum; http://www.artuk.org/artworks/the-steamship-great-eastern-in-a-choppy-sea-173302 At a time when the largest ships afloat were under 5,000 tons, 'Great Eastern' had a designed tonnage of nearly 19,000 tons. Like the 'Great Western' and 'Great Britain' before her, the 'Great Eastern' was a one-off. There was nothing else like her in the world. Henry Clifford was a second engineer on the 'Great Eastern' and painted numerous oils of the ship.
