This is the unique original Gouache painting by Severino Baraldi.

Richard Chancellor had originally been part of an expedition to find a north-east passage to China. Instead, he landed in Russia and sealed an important trade agreement with its Tsar, Ivan the Terrible. The illustration shows how, hammered by a storm, Richard Chancellor's ship found a safe anchorage at Vardo, the expedition's agreed rendezvous in an emergency. But none of the other ships arrived to join him.

Originally published in Look and Learn issue 852, 13th May 1978. Please not vertical crease down centre because the board was folded in storage. This is reflected in the asking price.
