EDITORS COMMENTS
The British Mediterranean Fleet, led by the majestic HMS Hood, gracefully rounds Cape Kara in the Gulf of Salonica on a momentous day, 5th November. This remarkable engraving captures a historic naval event that unfolded in the late 19th century. The fleet's mighty ships proudly display their flags as they navigate through the azure waters of the Gulf. Mount Olympus stands tall and proud in the background, adding to the grandeur of this scene. The maritime prowess of the Royal Navy is evident as it showcases its strength and dominance over these strategic waters. Amongst this formidable fleet are renowned vessels such as HMS Hawke, Rodney, Barham, Ramillies, Sybille, Howe, Arethusa - each bearing witness to Britain's naval might. These ships have played significant roles in pivotal battles throughout history including Trafalgar and Camperdown. As we gaze upon this print from an era long gone by, we are reminded of not only Britain's naval supremacy but also its unwavering commitment to protecting its interests across vast oceans. The presence of troops and armed forces further emphasizes their dedication to safeguarding national security. This engraving serves as a testament to both artistry and historical significance; it was originally published in The Illustrated London News on 30th November 1895. Now preserved within a private collection for all admirers of fine art to appreciate.
