Picture
Just in - sketch done by Mark Meyers, who was the possible artist of another sketch of Valkyrien with a square rig!.  


It shows the square sail rig that was planned for Valkyrien when she was restored in Hawaii.

Valkyrien´s "spreaders" are actually "crosstrees" and were built for square sails.    The sketch shows the planned rig - the triangular Foresail, Fore Topsail and Fore Topgallant. 

Valkyrien has waited a long time for the square sails but when she goes on the water in the Bay of Panama as a Sail Training Tall Ship, she will boast a square rig.
