Robert Taylor. Naval art print 'Battle of Trafalgar' by Robert
Taylor depicting the most famous naval battle.
Battle of Trafalgar by Robert Taylor. At 1300 hours on October 21st, 1805, Vice Admiral Horatio Nelson's
flagship H.H.S. Victory breaks through the French and Spanish line of
battle. Her first broadside cripples Admiral Villeneuve's French flagship
Bucentaure and her second badly damages the Spanish Santisima Trinidad.
Perhaps the most famous warship of all time; Victory dominates the
painting, symbolic of the Royal Navy's most historic victory, that
thwarted Napoleons plans to conquer Britain, and gave the royal Navy
supremacy of the seas which went unchallenged for a hundred years.
Signature: 8th Lord Nelson of Trafalgar
