Nelson reclines full-length facing to the left, covered by a sheet, leaving only his head, left shoulder and arm visible, with his uniform coat discarded at his feet.

EDITORS COMMENTS
The death of Nelson, 21 October 1805, captured in this poignant oil on canvas painting by Arthur William Devis, is a powerful and emotional depiction of a pivotal moment in British naval history. The scene takes place in the cockpit of the 'Victory' during the Battle of Trafalgar, as Admiral Lord Nelson lays dying. His figure is shrouded in a sheet, with only his head and arm visible, symbolizing the ultimate sacrifice he made for his country.
Devis's attention to detail is evident in the discarded uniform coat at Nelson's feet and the somber expressions of those attending to him. The artist based his portrait on a posthumous sketch made aboard the 'Victory', adding authenticity to this tragic scene.
The painting evokes feelings of mourning and grief as we witness one of Britain's greatest heroes meeting his end. The colors used by Devis add depth and emotion to the composition, capturing the solemn atmosphere onboard the ship.
This historical artwork serves as a reminder of Nelson's bravery and sacrifice for his nation, immortalizing him as a war hero who will forever be remembered for his contributions to British naval history.
