An atmospheric painting, developed from an idea of Sir Robin Knox-Johnston’s, showing one of his Clipper 60 yachts and the shadow image of one of the most famous, fastest of the China tea clippers, the elegant “Thermopylae“.
The 60-foot Clipper Class yachts were specially designed for this very long distance race conceived by Sir Robin.
