Summary

The Battle of Trafalgar, 21 October 1805: Death of Nelson

This is a copy of Stanfield's 'Battle of Trafalgar' for the United Services' Club (1836).

Painted some thirty years after the event, this shows the battle at about 2.30 pm in the afternoon and is a copy of Clarkson Stanfield’s very large canvas painted for the United Service Club, Pall Mall, exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1836. It is an unusual interpretation of the battle, viewed from the lee rather than the weather side of the British fleet, with sky occupying three-quarters of the picture.

There is a more detailed description of this painting contained within the 'Notebook' field within the 'Notes' icon.
