EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this engraving from the 19th century, we witness a momentous occasion as The Channel Fleet gracefully enters Cork Harbour. The scene is alive with maritime grandeur and military precision, capturing a historic event that unfolded on September 24,1853. As the fleet sails towards its destination, all eyes are fixed upon the towering figure of the Port Admiral. Positioned at the heart of this bustling harbor, he stands tall and resolute on his tribune, eagerly awaiting their arrival. His presence commands respect and admiration from both naval officers and civilians alike. The Duke of Wellington himself graces this illustrious gathering, adding an air of regality to an already awe-inspiring spectacle. Ships adorned with flags proudly display their allegiance to Her Majesty's Royal Navy while cannons stand ready for a thunderous salute. Cork Lighthouse guides these mighty vessels safely into port as Carlisle Fort and Camden Fort watch over them protectively. The navy's flagship vessel Agamemnon leads this majestic procession alongside other proud warships like Arrogant. This engraving not only captures a significant moment in history but also pays homage to the unwavering dedication of our armed forces. It serves as a reminder of their commitment to safeguarding our shores and upholding national pride. Through intricate details expertly etched onto paper by skilled hands, we are transported back in time to relive this extraordinary event forever immortalized
