- Description
Friesland
The Friesland, built in 1663, was a second-rate ship. Armoured with 80 cannons, she belonged to the large fleet of the United Provinces of Holland. Under the command of De Ruyter on board the admiral's ship "Zeven Provincien", the Friesland was used with 77 other ships in the naval battle of Solebay against the French and English. The model drawings are based on rich original documentation available in Holland; the model is distinguished by particular attention to detail in the design of the stern ornamentation and the bridge superstructures.
The model, exceptionally richly detailed and carefully built, is very valuable. The kit contains an extraordinary amount of metal ornaments, decorations and largely prefabricated parts. The model has a 2nd planking.
