Corel SM25 - REALE DE FRANCE, 17th century galley, kit 1:60

The origins of the galley, a typical warship characterised by a very streamlined shape, can be traced back to the Mediterranean ships of classical antiquity. The first examples of the galley date back
to the end of the 12th century; successive modifications led to the special lines of the 16th century, its period of greatest espansion and utilisation. Its original function as a vessel of war having been
abandoned, the last galleys survived until the second half of the 18th century as status symbols. Our model is a scale 1:60 reproduction of a sumptuous galley of the time of Louis XIV. The original documentation used for the reconstruction is kept in a famous French museum.
