This print captures the majestic HMS Worcester, a renowned training ship at Greenhithe for the Thames Nautical Training College. Taken in 1936 by the talented photographer John Topham, this image offers a glimpse into Europe's naval history during the tumultuous years between the wars. The photograph showcases the impressive rigging of the ship as it proudly stands on the river Thames. The monochrome tones add an air of nostalgia to this snapshot from the twentieth century, transporting viewers back to a time when naval training was paramount. HMS Worcester served as a vital institution for aspiring sailors seeking education and preparation within the Royal Navy. Its significance is further emphasized by its prominent position along one of England's most iconic waterways.
