This photograph captures a momentous encounter between two iconic warships, symbolizing the passage of time and technological advancement. Titled "A Century Between: The Dreadnought steaming past The Victory" this print showcases the HMS Dreadnought sailing past the legendary HMS Victory. The year is 1906, and as the first fully armoured battleship, the mighty Dreadnought revolutionized naval warfare. Its imposing presence on the water signifies a new era in maritime technology, with its advanced steam-powered engines and towering masts dominating the scene.
