Repairing a spread sail on the forecastle of the 'Herzogin Cecilie'
We were delighted to have George Oates, ex of Flickr who started and managed the Commons, come to visit us at the National Maritime Museum in November 2008.

When she was here she curated some Commons content for us. This set is the first of this content.

These photographs come from the Museum's Villiers collection. George's selection of photographs includes images from Villiers' voyages on the Herzogin Cecilie, the Grace Harwar, the Parma and on Arab dhows. You can find out loads more about Alan Villiers and his photography and about the Museum's historic photographs collection on the NMM site.
