Originally commissioned by the esteemed Sir Walter Raleigh and later acquired by the Tudor navy, this ship became an iconic symbol of British maritime strength. As depicted in this monochrome image from Old Naval Prints, we witness the grandeur and might of the Ark Royal. Serving as the flagship for numerous battles, it reached its zenith during the historic defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588.

The woodcut-style presentation adds a touch of authenticity to this remarkable piece.
