EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the H. M. Frigate Pomone, a remarkable naval vessel that played a significant role in British maritime history. Created by an unknown artist, this print captures the essence of the ship's grandeur and power. The H. M. Frigate Pomone was launched in 1805 as part of the Royal Navy's Leda-class fifth rate ships. Throughout her service, she saw action during the Napoleonic Wars under Captain Robert Barrie's command, primarily patrolling the Mediterranean waters. Tragically, her illustrious career came to an end when she met her demise off The Needles on the Isle of Wight in 1811. However, this print immortalizes her legacy and reminds us of her valiant contributions to British naval warfare. The image depicts HMS Pomone gracefully sailing through turbulent seas with its majestic sails billowing against a picturesque backdrop. The intricate detail captured by John Player & Sons' engraving highlights every aspect of this magnificent warship – from its rigging and flags fluttering proudly to its imposing structure cutting through waves. As we gaze upon this historic scene frozen in time, we are transported back to an era where these mighty vessels ruled the seas and defended Britain's shores with unwavering determination. This print serves as both a testament to our rich maritime heritage and a reminder of those who bravely sailed into battle aboard such formidable warships like H. M. Frigate Pomone.
