Created by Charles Edward Dixon, this print showcases the eponymous gunboat as it sets sail from the bustling port of Portsmouth. The Speedy, with its impressive displacement of 810 tons, was a formidable force on the seas. Its heaviest gun, a 4.7-inch quick firer, symbolized Britain's commitment to maintaining its naval supremacy during this era. As depicted in this artwork, The Speedy exudes strength and elegance against the backdrop of an expansive sea. This image serves as a testament to British maritime heritage and military prowess. It highlights not only the technological advancements made in shipbuilding but also pays homage to those who served aboard these vessels. With meticulous attention to detail, Dixon masterfully brings this historical moment to life through his artistry. The vibrant colours and dynamic composition draw viewers into an immersive experience where they can almost feel the wind whipping through their hair as they witness The Speedy's departure from Portsmouth. As we gaze upon "The Speedy Leaving Portsmouth" we are reminded of Britain's rich nautical history and its enduring legacy as one of Europe's greatest seafaring nations.
