Thomas Elliot (c. 1770-1800) - A View of Part of the British fleet at Spithead - RCIN 405171 - Royal Collection

description

Summary

This depicts the review of the Fleet of 1790 and includes the 'Impregnable', 'Formidable', 'Gibraltar', 'Queen Charlotte', 'Victory' and 'Royal George'. When this painting and its pair (RCIN 405170) were cleaned in 1968, the process revealed Thomas Elliot's signature, an artist not to be confused with William Elliott. The frame bears a contemporary dedication to that great war-time Prime Minister, William Pitt (1759-1806).
