The artist was george Chambers. He died in 1840 and Donegal was still in service at that time so it is a contemporary painting.

There aren't that many good detailed contemporary images of boats being handled so I thought it worth posting.

A model shipwright and an amateur historian are heads & tails of the same coin

current builds:

HMS Berwick 1775, 1/192 scratchbuild; a Slade 74 in the Navy Board style

Mediator sloop, 1/48 - an 18th century transport scratchbuild 

French longboat - CAF - 1/48, on hold
