HMS Victoria, Royal Navy 121 gun warship, c1859 (c1890-c1893). Artist: William Frederick Mitchell
HMS Victoria, Royal Navy 121 gun warship, c1859 (c1890-c1893). Launched in 1859, HMS Victoria was the last three decker ship of the line to enter service with the Royal Navy. She was the largest wooden warship ever built. The advent of ironclad warships rendered Victoria obsolete, and she was only in active service from 1864 until 1867, after which she was assigned to the Reserve Fleet at Portsmouth. She was scrapped in 1893. A print from Her Majestys Navy Including its Deeds and Battles, by Lieut Chas Rathbone Low, Volume II, JS Virtue & Co, London, 1890-1893

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic HMS Victoria, a remarkable 121-gun warship that served in the Royal Navy during the late 19th century. Painted by artist William Frederick Mitchell, this chromolithograph captures the grandeur and power of this historic vessel. Launched in 1859, HMS Victoria held the distinction of being the last three-decker ship of its kind to be commissioned by the Royal Navy and was also renowned as the largest wooden warship ever constructed. However, with advancements in naval technology leading to ironclad warships, HMS Victoria quickly became obsolete. Despite her short active service from 1864 to 1867, she left an indelible mark on maritime history. Following her retirement from active duty, she found a place within the Reserve Fleet at Portsmouth until her eventual scrapping in 1893. The image is part of Her Majesty's Navy Including its Deeds and Battles series authored by Lieutenant Chas Rathbone Low. Published between 1890 and 1893 by JS Virtue & Co. , London, this volume provides a comprehensive account of British naval achievements throughout history. Through Mitchell's artistry and Low's meticulous documentation, this print not only serves as a visual tribute to HMS Victoria but also offers insight into Britain's rich naval heritage during both peace and wartime. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance amidst changing times on treacherous seas.
