Departure of the Squadron of Evolution from Spithead, May 13th 1846
Print. In 1846 Gilbert and Grove, the publisher, who were both based at Lymington, Hants, issued 'The Experimental Squadron: a series of drawings on stone by L. Haghe, from paintings by J.M. Gilbert illustrative of H.M.[Queen Victoria's] visit to Spithead, July 15, 1845'. It was sufficiently popular to run to a second edition that year and this later print of the Squadron's subsequent departure was presumably intended to capitalize on that. Day and Haghe probably issued it in London, as they had the preceding series. [PvdM 8/15]
