Fine untitled signed etching by Geoffrey Ingleton of Cook’s ships HMS Resolution and HMS Adventure at anchor at Charlotte Sound, New Zealand during Cook’s second voyage of exploration.
Cook had arranged a rendezvous point at Queen Charlotte Sound, New Zealand should the ships be separated on the outward bound voyage. On 8 February 1773 the ships lost contact with each other in a heavy fog. On 18 May 1773 the Resolution arrived at Ship Cove, Queen Charlotte Sound, where the Adventure had been for several weeks.

Ingleton's diverse interests were always centred on things maritime. He was a cartographer, author, artist, etcher, ship modeller, book collector and publisher. He acquired an enormous collection of books and periodicals, maps, photographs, ships' log books and nautical charts.
