Ship bottle made by Italian internee Danilo Barion. It was given to a local journalist. A clear glass bottle containing two three-masted sailing ship models set into a sand-coloured base representing the sea. Each ship has masts rigged with fine white thread, pale sails, and a hull edged in red along the waterline. A small paper label with handwritten text is affixed inside the bottle near the neck; the text is not legible in the image. |
