This print titled "A Boarding Party" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of naval warfare. The vibrant colours of this lithograph bring to life a scene from Charles Rathbone Low's book, "Her Majesty's Navy". In the image, we see a group of sailors in their distinguished naval uniforms preparing for battle. Armed with swords and weapons, they stand on deck ready to board an enemy ship. Their determined expressions reveal their bravery and commitment to defending their country. The composition highlights the meticulous attention to detail that was characteristic of 19th-century art. From the intricately designed warships in the background to each sailor's uniform, every element is meticulously rendered.

It serves as a reminder of Britain's rich maritime history and its influence across Europe. As we gaze at this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time - witnessing firsthand the courage and camaraderie among these brave sailors who risked everything for king and country. This artwork captures both the grandeur and harsh realities of life at sea during this era.
