This view looks up the harbour on the Gosport side where a submarine is running in, with another ahead of it. HMS 'Victory' is in stern view at her moorings on the right and a large three-masted schooner-rigged steam yacht is to the left off the buildings of Camper and Nicholson's yard. Other small naval craft, including a rowed whaler in the foreground, are spread across the calm summer evening waters. The foregrpound submarine is shown with a cigar hull and small conning tower, flying the white ensign and displaying her pendant number as B5, though B5 in fact had a deck casing and much larger conning tower.); © National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, London

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolour print by William Lionel Wyllie captures a serene summer evening in 1916, as two submarines make their way up the harbour on the Gosport side. The lead submarine, with its distinctive cigar-shaped hull and small conning tower, flies the white ensign proudly as it navigates the calm waters. In the background, HMS 'Victory' can be seen at her moorings on the right, while a majestic three-masted schooner-rigged steam yacht sails gracefully to the left.
The scene is bustling with activity, as smaller naval craft dot the harbor and a rowed whaler glides across the foreground. Each detail meticulously rendered by Wyllie brings this historical moment to life - from the architecture of Camper and Nicholson's yard to the subtle play of light on the water.
As you gaze upon this artwork, you are transported back in time to a period of maritime history where submarines were still a novelty and naval prowess was on full display. The sense of anticipation and excitement is palpable as these vessels make their way towards their destination. This print is not just a work of art but a window into an important chapter in our past.
