The Death of Nelson at the Battle of Trafalgar by Daniel Maclise.
Admiral Horatio Nelson is seen lying on the deck of HMS Victory after being mortally wounded, hit in the shoulder with the bullet going down through his chest, fired from a French sniper high in the rigging of the French ship Redoubtable, which is entangled with HMS Victory during the later stages of the Battle of Trafalgar. The painting also shows in great detail British sailors performing their duties on board Victory and the French ships rigging entangled in that of Victory. French crew can be seen firing and fighting against the British. Admiral Nelson would be taken below decks where he would die as the battle was won. The original painting which is some 15 metres in length hangs in the Palace of Westminster.
Open edition print.
