This sketch on board the battlecruiser 'Tiger' and the artist is positioned aft, looking forward at Q turret, which is trained to starboard. The date is 1916-17 before the fitting of the searchlight towers on the after funnel. The pencil sketch of the 'Lion' (so inscribed by the artist), on the right, shows her with the rig she carried from mid-1916 to early 1918.
