I'm looking for a book of reproductions of works by George Weatherill (1810-1890) who painted in the Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay area. He painted many wrecks and as a consequence gives insight into the loss of the Ipswich brig Elizabeth Jane.

In 2003, in a house at Robin Hood's Bay, two oak timbers were discovered, one carved with 'Elizabeth Jan' and the other 'Ipswich'. These were later found to be the Name board and Registration board of the Ipswich-based brig the Elizabeth Jane. Built in Nova Scotia in 1817, she was 'lost off the coast of Yorkshire' in 1854.
