EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic HMS Resolution of the Royal Sovereign class, a true symbol of British naval power. Published in 1940 as part of the renowned book "British Warships" this archival image takes us back to a bygone era. The photograph highlights an innovative feature on this battleship - a bulge along its waterline. This design element was specifically incorporated to minimize the ship's earlier tendency to roll, ensuring stability even in rough seas. It is fascinating to witness how naval engineers sought solutions for such challenges during that time. As we delve into history through this illustration, we are reminded of the immense importance placed on these vessels by the Royal Navy. The Resolution, launched in 1892, represents not only a magnificent craft but also an embodiment of Britain's maritime supremacy during the late 19th century. With its sails proudly billowing against a dramatic sky, this pre-dreadnought warship evokes feelings of awe and admiration. Hilary Morgan skillfully captures every intricate detail with precision and artistry. This print serves as a testament to our rich naval heritage and invites us to appreciate both the technological advancements made over time and the timeless beauty found within historical archives.
