EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'The Royal Navy Artillery Volunteers - An Entertainment on Board HMS "Frolic", 1891', is an intriguing glimpse into the past of naval life during the Victorian era. The image, taken from 'The Graphic. An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper', Volume 44, July to December, 1891, showcases a lively scene on the deck of HMS Frolic, a Royal Navy warship. A group of Royal Navy Artillery Volunteers, both male and female, are seen engaging in an entertainment, likely a theatrical performance or a drill, for their shipmates. The men, dressed in their uniforms, are intently watching the event, while the women, in their elegant Victorian attire, add a touch of grace and femininity to the scene. The deck of the ship, with its ropes, rigging, and cannons, serves as the backdrop for this unique moment of camaraderie and leisure. The photograph, though unsigned, offers a fascinating insight into the social and recreational aspects of life on board a naval vessel during the 19th century. The Royal Navy Artillery Volunteers, a voluntary organization, provided additional manpower for the Royal Navy and played an essential role in the defense of the British Empire. This photograph is a testament to their dedication and the spirit of community that existed among the sailors and volunteers on board HMS Frolic.
