EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image is taken from the special panorama supplement, 'Great War Deeds,' produced by the Illustrated London News in 1915. The painting, by renowned artist Norman Wilkinson, depicts the HMS Glasgow, a cruiser of the British Royal Navy, in the midst of the Battle of the Falkland Islands. In this pivotal moment during World War I, the Glasgow, under the command of Captain H.C. Fitzroy, engaged in a fierce fight against the German ship Leipzig. The scene unfolds in the dark depths of the night, with the Glasgow's boats launching to deliver a devastating volley of torpedoes, which set the Leipzig ablaze. The German ship, engulfed in smoke and flames, eventually sank, marking a significant victory for the British Navy. This powerful image is a testament to the bravery and courage displayed by the sailors of both sides during the conflict. The HMS Glasgow's heroic actions serve as a reminder of the intense battles fought on the vast oceans during the First World War.
