I was very fortunate to be able to visit the Vasa Museum in Stockholm, Sweden in the early 1990's and was able to capture this photograph the stern of the Vasa . The quality of this and the other Vasa photographs in this sub gallery is poor due to them being taken with an APS film camera with the images being subsequently scanned into a computer to produce a digital image file. Vasa was built between 1626 and 1628 and sank in Stockholm harbour on her maiden voyage. There is a great deal of information about her on the Internet.
