EDITORS COMMENTS
This color engraving, titled "Lord Bridports Action off Port L Orient, June 23rd 1795" depicts a dramatic sea battle that took place centuries ago. Created by the talented artist Thomas Whitcombe and engraved by Bailey for J. Jenkinss Naval Achievements in 1816, this print is now part of a private collection known as The Stapleton Collection. The scene portrayed in this artwork is nothing short of awe-inspiring. Thick billows of smoke engulf the air as warships from Lord Bridport's fleet engage in a fierce confrontation with an enemy armada. Flames lick at the ships' masts and sails, creating a blaze that illuminates the darkened sky. Amidst the chaos, one can almost hear the thunderous roar of cannons firing and feel the tremors caused by cannonballs crashing into their targets. Whitcombe's attention to detail brings this historical event to life on paper. Each ship is meticulously rendered with precision and accuracy, showcasing both its grandeur and vulnerability amidst battle. As some vessels sink beneath turbulent waves, others valiantly fight on against all odds. This engraving serves as a powerful reminder of the bravery displayed by naval forces during times of conflict. It immortalizes Lord Bridport's heroic actions while capturing the sheer intensity and devastation experienced during sea battles in days gone by. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art from Fine Art Finder via Bridgeman Images, we are transported back to an era where valor clashed
