EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures the majestic presence of HMS Victory at the Royal Naval Exhibition of 1891. The exhibition, held in London, marked the centenary of Lord Nelson's victory at the Battle of Trafalgar and served as a celebration of the Royal Navy's rich history. The image showcases HMS Victory, the iconic British naval flagship, docked at Chelsea Reach, with the distinctive Albert Bridge in the background. The ship, adorned with its grand sails and intricate rigging, exudes an air of power and grandeur. Sailors in their crisp uniforms can be seen working on the deck, while a group of officers and dignitaries are gathered on the quarterdeck, engaged in conversation. To the right of the ship, a military hospital tent is set up, a testament to the importance of medical care and support for the naval personnel during that era. The photograph, taken using a lantern slide, transports us back to the Victorian and Edwardian eras, offering a glimpse into the daily life of the Royal Navy during a time of great significance. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, from which this photograph is sourced, is a valuable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of the Royal Navy and the maritime world. This image, in particular, provides a unique and fascinating insight into the grandeur and importance of the Royal Naval Exhibition of 1891 and the role of HMS Victory in British naval history.
