Provenance

This decoration on plates were found on the Swedish East India Man Gothenburg, which back in 1745 ran aground and sank at Hunnebådan at the entrance to the port of the City of Gotheburg.

With an extremely costly cargo, the full rigged Götheborg was on her way to return from a two year trip to her home port when she sank.
