EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic HMS Victory, a first-rate ship of the line that played a significant role in British naval history. Built between 1759 and 1765, this majestic vessel served as Admiral Lord Nelson's flagship during the historic Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The image captures the timeless beauty of the ship, which has been stationed at Portsmouth since its retirement from service in 1812. In 1922, it was carefully moved into dry dock for restoration, ensuring its preservation for future generations to admire. The photograph portrays HMS Victory against a backdrop of Portsmouth Naval Dockyard, emphasizing its historical significance within Britain's maritime heritage. The quayside and wharf provide an authentic glimpse into the bustling activity surrounding this warship during its active years.
