EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Ship Guns and Ship Armour" takes us back to the 19th century when maritime warfare was at its peak. The print showcases a detailed section of ship artillery, revealing the powerful weaponry that protected naval vessels during combat. The image offers a fascinating glimpse into the trial and effects of these ship guns and armour. One can observe the intricate mesh size of the armoured clothing worn by soldiers, emphasizing their dedication to protecting their ships. Broken shot lodged in ship armour serves as a testament to the fierce battles fought on open waters. Notably, this engraving captures not only male soldiers but also female soldiers, highlighting their significant role in combat troops within the navy. It is a reminder that armed forces were not limited to men alone but included brave women who stood side by side with their male counterparts. The presence of royalty is evident as well, with references made to His Royal Highness and Her Royal Highness. This suggests that naval schools played an essential role in training future leaders for maritime operations. Overall, this historical print provides us with valuable insights into traditional ship guns and armour used by the Royal Navy during this era. It serves as a visual tribute to those who dedicated themselves to protect our seas and secure our nations' maritime interests.
