Artist's Description
The brig Aris (named after the god of war, Ares) of the historic Hydriot* Tsamados family, was one of the most distinguished Greek ships during the Greek War of Independence and continued to serve in the Greek Navy until the early 20th century as a training ship.
Aris participated in many of the early naval clashes with the Ottoman Navy, but became famous after the action fought at Navarino on 8 May [O.S. 26 April] 1825, which became known as the "Sortie of Aris", when the ship after the killing of her captain (Anastasios Tsamados) sailed through the midst of the Turco-Egyptian fleet, being attacked on all sides for several hours and facing in total 32 ships one after another, before reaching the open sea.

* of the Greek island of Hydra.
