Nelson's Victory at Trafalgar by
Anthony SaundersUndoubtedly the most famous battle in
the history of naval warfare. The battle of Trafalgar was fought on a
calm, almost windless day, on 21st October 1805. Nelson's revolutionary
battle plan was to cut apart the larger Franco-Spanish fleet of
Vice-Admiral Villeneuve by sailing in two single column divisions
directly at right angles into the combined fleet and thus rendering
almost half of the leading ships useless until they could turn and join
the fight, which in such calm conditions could take hours. The battle
raged for five hours, in which time not one single British ship was
lost, however, Nelson would tragically lose his life at the very moment
of his triumph, a triumph which rendered the British Navy unchallenged
in supremacy for over a century.
Here Nelson's flagship, HMS Victory
(followed by HMS Temeraire) is seen breaking the Franco-Spanish line and
commencing her murderous hail of gunfire into the stern of Villeneuve's
flagship Bucentaure. Meanwhile the Victory herself is being fired upon
by the French Neptune. Redoubtable can be seen at the far right.
Battle of
the Nile by Anthony Saunders On the 1st August 1798, thirteen
French ships of the line sat at anchor in Aboukir bay off the coast of
Alexandria Egypt, in support of Napoleon who was inland with his troops
attempting to conquer the country. AS night time approached so did Lord
Horatio Nelson and the British fleet. nelson had been hunting Napoleon
at sea for months; at Aboukir Bat he had found the French fleet, trapped
and unprepared for battle. Nelson's audacious plan was to attack the
French on their unprotected port side, the plan had its risks, the whole
of the British fleet could run aground in the Shallows - nut Nelson
knew the waters too well. The battle of the Nile was one o f the most
decisive in the history of naval warfare. By the end of the battle
nearly all three French ships were sunk or captured. the 124 gun
flagship the pride of the French navy L'Orient, has exploded with such
ferocity that it halted the battle for over ten minutes. Napoleon's
ability to dominate the region had been crushed, whilst Nelson was to
become a hero throughout the whole of Britain.Ships form left to right. HMS

David Dipnals evocative images of the restful idyllic scenes of southern England are well known, epitomising, as they have for years, all that is endearing about traditional English landscapes. His well known images of his beautiful and fertile homeland are a world away from Australia, where he now spends most of his time. In the last decade, David Dipnall estimates that he has travelled nearly 2 million miles, continuing to maintain a busy work schedule of exhibitions and regularly commuting between England and Australia. His originals are highly sought after, and over fifty of his images have been published as limited edition prints, many of which have sold out. Always a traveller, he believes in the philosophy that absence makes the heart grow fonder, and his beautifully detailed traditional English landscapes are definitely painted from the heart.
