Soldiers and Sailors Manning a Capstan, 1873
Engraving showing Royal Navy sailors and soldiers from a Scottish Regiment manning a capstan, whilst a Scotch piper stands on the capstan to give them some music. Capstans were used for a number of tasks, but it is likely that these men are raising the anchor prior to sailing away. In the background Navy and Army officers watch the men at work
