EDITORS COMMENTS
The Great Naval Review: 'No Beds' - a humorous illustration by Phiz, 1856. This evocative image, drawn by the renowned English caricaturist Hablot Browne, better known as Phiz, depicts the chaos and excitement surrounding the Royal Navy's naval review at Spithead, Hampshire, England, in 1856. The scene inside a cramped boarding house reveals a sea of men, some snoring loudly in their hammocks, others huddled together on the floor, all vying for a place to rest during the much-anticipated event. The influx of people on the Tuesday evening before the review was so immense that many were left without any accommodation at all. Those who managed to secure beds did so at exorbitant prices. This engraving, published in the Illustrated London News, captures the sense of overcrowding and the humorous predicament faced by the weary travelers. The image, reminiscent of the 19th century, offers a glimpse into the past, when the Royal Navy's naval reviews were major national events that drew large crowds. The interior of the rooming house, filled with men in various stages of sleep, is a testament to the enduring appeal of such events and the lengths people would go to be a part of the experience.
