The Victory at Trafalgar. Nelson's Flagship Nearing the Santissima Trinidad by Charles Dixon. Published in 1901 by George Newnes Ltd, this is an original book plate from a large format naval book. These may have some text from the book on the rear of the book plate, but this does not detract from the framed image. Only a few of these original book plates are still available today, more than a century after they were first published. |
Santisima Trinidad by Geoff Hunt. The Spanish Flgship. First rate 136-gun ship. Built at Havana in 1769 as a 112-gun ship, re-armed in 1796 with about 136 guns to make her the worlds only ship with four complete gundecks, this celebrated Spanish flagship fought at the battles of St. Vincent and Trafalgar. Several observers remarked on her red and white striped sides. |
