EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a momentous event during the Meeting of the British Association's excursion to Plymouth and Devonport in the 19th century. The focal point of this print is the dramatic explosion of a torpedo from HMS Cambridge, an awe-inspiring display that leaves viewers in awe. The illustration, originally featured in The Illustrated London News on September 4,1869, showcases the power and might of Britain's naval forces. As troops from both the navy and army gather alongside members of royalty, it becomes evident that this gathering holds great significance for maritime history. The image highlights not only the destructive force unleashed by torpedoes but also serves as a testament to scientific progress. It symbolizes how advancements in technology were shaping warfare strategies during this era. Set against a backdrop of Devonport's picturesque landscape and with Plymouth Sound serving as its stage, this engraving encapsulates both beauty and danger within one frame. The explosion itself creates a mesmerizing spectacle that demands attention while reminding us of the risks faced by those who serve their country at sea. As we gaze upon this historical artwork today, we are transported back to an era where naval power reigned supreme. It serves as a reminder of Britain's rich maritime heritage and pays tribute to those who dedicated their lives to protecting our shores.
