OK that narrows it down a bit. Unfortunately that is a type
not very popular with the historic societies that tend to
re-create naval vessels or later (more practical, and
usually smaller) types.


Instead of an images search, it may help you to do a web
search of home pages of various maritime historic societies,
and also training ships. This should get you into the ball
park and if you can't find a couple of good ones to
download, you can always email them.
