MANTUA MODEL 778 - LA COURONNE

Scale 1:98

The Couronne was the first warship that was built by the French themselves in response to Richelieu's plans to revamp the French navy after having a number of ships built by the Dutch. The fact that the French did not yet have much experience in shipbuilding is evident from the long time that elapsed between the laying of the keel and the launching. The construction is was supervised by Charles Morieur Dieppe. It was one of the largest ships progressives of his time. It carried 68 or 72 guns, eight of which fired forward and eight or 12 rearward. This was rare until Dupuy de Lôme invented a new design for naval guns. The Couronne took part in the battle at Hondarribia in 1638 and another mission against Spain 1639 under Henri de Sourdis.

The mounting kit contains:

  • laser-cut boards
  • slats
  • wooden masts and superstructures
  • Figurehead, caryatids and decorations finely cast in lost wax
  • brass columns and lilies
  • flags printed on silk
  • working maneuvers in hemp
  • detailed drawings in various tables with assembly instructions.
