Nelson put on board his ship during a storm
Apparently an initial version of PAE5379, showing this incident of Deal relating to Nelson's time in the 'Albemarle'. It is the ninth of a group of designs for wood-engravings to illustrate the 1854 edition of Southey's 'Life of Nelson' published by David Bogue, London. The others, not all in necessarily finished form and not in chronological order, are PAE5373-PAE5383. Other images in the edition were done by Edward Duncan (10) or reproduced pictures by Richard Westall, Sir Thomas Lawrence and other uncredited but mostly identifiable sources. The title here is as published for the final version. For Foster's full contributions to the edition see PAE5373. [PvdM 9/15]
