Thomas Collotype showing the launching of the Ictíneo I at the Moll Nou in Barcelona in 1859. This is a photolithography made using a photograph, and it shows a series of details that are very close to the original vessel. It is one of the most faithful images of Narcís Monturiol’s first submarine.
