EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases the impressive fleet of ships under the command of Vice-Admiral Lyons in 1858. The thirteen vessels, proudly flying the British flag, include the Terrible, Valorous, Royal Albert, Renown, Orion, Hannibal, Caesar, Diadem, Brunswick, Euryalis, Arrogant, and Racoon. The image captures the essence of the Victorian era's naval prowess, with the ships anchored in a serene harbor, their sails furled, and their cannons ready for action. The Terrible and Valorous, both steam-powered frigates, are prominently displayed at the center, while the other vessels are arranged in a semi-circle around them. The Royal Albert, a wooden-hulled screw sloop, is anchored at the far right, with the Renown, a steam-powered corvette, anchored to its left. The other ships, including the Orion, Hannibal, Caesar, Diadem, Brunswick, Euryalis, Arrogant, and Racoon, are also visible in the photograph. Each vessel, with its unique design and size, adds to the grandeur of the scene. The boats in the foreground, with their oars at the ready, suggest that the fleet is preparing for departure, adding to the sense of anticipation. The photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the naval history of the late 19th century. It is a reminder of the importance of the sea and the role of the Royal Navy in maintaining Britain's global influence during this period. With its rich detail and historical significance, this photograph print is a must-have for any maritime history enthusiast or collector.
