Description
L'Hermione frigate. Vertical version.
The Hermione is a French 32-gun Concorde-class frigate fitted for 12-pounder guns, completed in Rochefort by the Asselin organisation in 2014. She is a reproduction of the 1779 Hermione, known for ferrying General La Fayette to the United States in 1780 when he rejoined the American side in the American Revolutionary War.
Ever since I read the Aubrey-Maturin saga for the first time, I fell in love with tall ships. Getting close to this beauty was a nice consolation after missing the visit of HMS Surprise to my seas.
