Glorious First of June: Commemorating the Historic Naval Battle off Ushant, 1794 This evocative print depicts the pivotal naval battle that took place on the First of June, 1794, off the coast of Ushant, a small island located in the English Channel. Known as the Glorious First of June, this significant event marked a decisive victory for the British Royal Navy under the command of Admiral Lord Howe against the French Revolutionary Navy, led by Admiral de Richery. The French fleet, numbering around 30 ships, had set sail from Brest with the intention of invading England. However, they were intercepted by a larger British fleet, consisting of 28 ships, as they approached the English Channel. The ensuing battle lasted for several hours, resulting in the French fleet suffering heavy losses, with eight ships being captured or sunk, and numerous casualties. The victory at Ushant was a morale booster for the British people, who had been living in fear of a French invasion. It also demonstrated the superiority of the British Royal Navy, which would remain unchallenged for the remainder of the Napoleonic Wars. This print serves as a testament to the courage and determination of the sailors and officers involved in the battle, as well as the importance of naval power during this period of history. The Glorious First of June is a significant moment in the annals of maritime history, and this print offers a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the fate of nations hung in the balance on the open sea.
