The 'Fairy Queen' was at one time the largest private steam yacht on Windermere. It was built for Colonel George John Miller Ridehalgh (1835–1892), who lived at Fell Foot, an extensive estate on the shore of the lake. This painting depicts the boat steaming past Ailsa Craig in the Firth of Clyde, near where it was originally built.
