Sutherland for The Naval Chronology of Great Britain by J. Ralfe and published in 1820, this colored engraving showcases the talent of Thomas Whitcombe (c. 1752-1824) and now resides in a private collection.

Whitcombe's attention to detail brings this engraving to life, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the heart-pounding action unfolding before them.
