The Spanish ship Hermione was a 26-gun frigate of the Spanish Navy, draughted by a British designer at Cadiz.[1] Opinions differ on the age and provenance of this ship. Some claim it to have been the Hermione bought in 1730.[2] Others believe it to have been the Hermione constructed in the Arsenal de la Carraca, Cadiz in 1752.[3] Notable incidentsThe ship fired several broadsides into the privateer Antigallican when held at Cadiz in 1756 at the beginning of the Seven Years' War, at that time armed with 32 nine-pounders.[4][5] Hermione engaged Captain Herbert Sawyer's frigate, the 28-gun {{HMS|Active|1758|6}}, and the 18-gun sloop-of-war {{HMS|Favourite|1757|2}} under Captain Philemon Pownoll, off the coast of Spain near the port of Cadiz in the action of 31 May 1762.[6][7] The British captured Hermione, with the capture being notable for the size and value of the bounty seized and the subsequent prize money awarded, possibly the largest ever in a single haul. William Cole, on a visit to his friend Horace Walpole, noted the suicide of Walpole's neighbour, Isaac Fernandez Nunez, in the summerhouse of Cross Deep House, following Nunez's ruin as insurer of Hermione.[8][9]Hermione features in a picture by Richard Wright, dated November 1762, depicting the capture and dedicated to the victorious captains by the artist.[1]References1. ^1 {{cite web |first=R. |last=Wright |authorlink=Richard Wright (painter) |url=http://www.grosvenorprints.com/stock_detail.php?ref=7408 |title=View of the Hermione |type=print |date=1 November 1762 |accessdate=12 June 2015}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Hermione}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.todoababor.es/datos_docum/hist_fr_h.htm |title=Historia de las embarcaciones menores de la Real Armada.
