Votive offering model of a ship

This is a VIII century model of a ship with two bridges and 64 cannons. The votive model has 13 human figures representing the crew, disproportionately large in size, arranged along the deck, at the tackle boards and on the tops. It has a single hull that weighs around 25-30 kg. There is a lantern on the poopdeck that is decorated with different figures. In the middle there is a monk, with an inscription in relief. The figurehead has the head of a man, sticking out its tongue, and the body of an animal. The inscription on the poop – “FT.Fco. Barreras” – may be the name of the bidder.
