www.clydesite.co.uk/clydebuilt/viewship.asp?id=12772 Post-1914, looks like.
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
derangedlemur 1914 is the very latest date for all of our Lawrence photos.
derangedlemur said:
It seems to be the same ship, so if Clydesite is correct, and they're claiming to have got hold of the original records, then this must be 1914 sometime.
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
derangedlemur Would the mast on our Rothesay Bay support 5 sails (sheets?) as in the Clydesite image?
derangedlemur said:
There's four spars on each mast. Close enough, I reckon - the top one's probably some wee yoke that folds up or something, or they cut it down to four because of the cloth rationing. We've got an antipodean flag on it and everything else identifiable is the same. Edit: In fact, there's five spars on the forward mast.

Wonderful painting! 27 August 1855 was a Monday ... hence the crew's washing hung out to dry?! I think Conrad Martens was on the west side of Farm Cove, before the sea wall was built. About here, going by Bradley's Head etc - goo.gl/maps/s9sVb1dxksmWMZub6
State Library of New South Wales said:
I agree - this painting has such a wonderful feel - and thanks for the pointers on the location.

Paddle steamer built by Fairfield, Govan, Scotland, that entered service as Jupiter in 1937 between Greenock and the Kyles Of Bute. During WW2 she served as minesweeper HMS Scawfell, as well as an escort ship in the North Sea and attending the Normandy landings. Returned to commercial service in 1946. Withdrawn in 1957. Sold by the Caledonian Steam Packet in 1960 but never taken up, She was broken up at Dublin in 1961.

Flickr is sometimes amazing! Via Robert Waverley And a model and more information from the Scottish Maritime Museum 8 April 1961 was a Saturday ...
Fred Dean Snr. said:
Looking at the warehouses on the quay, I think this is the Grand Canal Basin. The Lock gates are just in front of her.
beachcomber australia said:
A little more info on another photo of the model - www.flickr.com/photos/scottishmaritimemuseum/4878427013/ - "... "Scawfell" returned safely to the Clyde after the War, and after reconditioning her original name was restored. "Jupiter" resumed normal sailings on the Firth in 1946, and after being converted to oil burning in 1956-57, continued to sail on the Clyde until she was sold to a Belfast buyer in1960. ..."
