The artist JOHN CHANCELLOR 1925-1984 originally a merchant seaman latterly chartered his owm hydrographic survey vessel and on retirement became one of the foremost marine artists of the 20th. century. This painting of the 'Beagle' was one of his last productions - it took 500 hours of research and 750 hours at the easel is meticulous in its detail and full of atmosphere and interest. The run of 850 copies was sold out within 12 months and has been keenly sought since then. It is used on the 'Beagle Project' and the CUP 'Darwin On-Line' web-sites and is also the foundation work for the building of a replica 'Beagle'.
