EDITORS COMMENTS
"HMS Renown: A Royal Voyage to the Antipodes - A fascinating fold-out cross section of HMS Renown, the battle-cruiser that carried His Royal Highness the Duke and Duchess of York, later King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, on their historic tour of Australia and New Zealand in 1927. This intricately detailed diagram, published by the Illustrated London News in July 1927, offers a unique glimpse into the interior of this magnificent vessel. The Duke and Duchess's suite is located towards the stern, with a spacious drawing room, bedroom, and bathroom. The royal party travelled in style and comfort, with every modern convenience provided on board. The Renown was a formidable warship, commissioned in 1916 and one of the most advanced battle-cruisers of its time. Armed with eight 15-inch guns and capable of reaching speeds of over 30 knots, it was a symbol of Britain's naval power and prestige. The Duke and Duchess's tour of the Antipodes was a significant moment in royal history, marking the first official visit by a British monarch to Australia and New Zealand. The visit strengthened the bonds between the two countries and their mother country, and was a testament to the enduring relationship that exists to this day. This diagram, produced by the skilled artists and designers at the Illustrated London News, offers a rare insight into the interior of HMS Renown and the luxury in which the Duke and Duchess of York travelled during their voyage to the other side of the world."
