The Battle of the Glorious First of June, 1794: Lord Howe breaking the line
This drawing appears to show Howe's 'Queen Charlotte', flying Howe’s flag at her main. She is the last ship clearly shown on the right, after passing through the French line to engage to leeward. The inscription in square brackets, lower left, is probably not by the artist.
