HMS 'Benbow' at Christmas, 1918
Inscribed by the artist, lower right, 'Benbow Xmas'. The battleship 'Benbow' was built by Beardmore at Glasgow, launched on 12 November 1913 and completed in October 1914. This nearly port-broadside study from off the port bow depicts her at Christmas 1918 with a flying-off platform and deflection scales on 'B' turret, and Christmas trees in her rigging.
