EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a pivotal moment in maritime history, as documented in the Medical Journal of the Frigate Success during diving operations on the wreck of HMS Royal George in 1840. The image, captured by Colonel Pasley of the Royal Engineers, showcases the daring exploits of early-era divers as they explore the depths of the submerged warship. The HMS Royal George, a formidable 98-gun third-rate ship of the line, had sunk in the Solent, off the south coast of England, during King George III's reign in 1800. The cause of the sinking remains a mystery, but the disaster claimed over 800 lives. More than a century later, in 1840, the British Navy, under the guidance of Colonel Pasley, embarked on an ambitious project to investigate the wreck and recover valuable artifacts. The print offers a fascinating glimpse into the diving equipment and techniques used during this groundbreaking expedition. The diver, clad in a bulky, lead-lined suit and armed with an air hose and a diving helmet, bravely descends into the murky waters. The shipwreck looms in the background, its wooden hull and cannons partially submerged, while support vessels and crew members stand by, ready to assist. The Medical Journal of the Frigate Success, where this image was originally published, provides invaluable insights into the diving operations and the health and safety concerns of the divers. The journal also includes detailed accounts of the artifacts recovered from the wreck, offering a unique perspective on the historical significance of the HMS Royal George and the advancements in underwater exploration during the 19th century. This print is an essential addition to any collection focusing on maritime history, naval warfare, or the history of diving and underwater exploration. Its historical value and intriguing subject matter make it a captivating and educational piece for researchers, history enthusiasts, and art collectors alike.
