EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history when communication at sea was done through the art of flag signalling. In this image, a Royal Navy sailor is seen indicating that he is about to signal one or more numbers using flags. The year is 1911, and the sailor's uniform and posture exude a sense of pride and duty.
The use of flags for communication dates back centuries, with each flag representing a specific letter or number. This method allowed sailors to convey messages across long distances without the need for modern technology. It required skill, precision, and an understanding of naval codes.
As we look at this photograph from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back in time to an era when the Royal Navy played a crucial role in protecting Britain's interests around the world. The image serves as a reminder of the importance of effective communication in military operations and how even simple gestures could hold significant meaning.
This print not only showcases the historical significance of flag signalling but also pays tribute to the brave men who served in the Royal Navy during this period. It is a testament to their dedication and professionalism in carrying out their duties at sea.
