The Naval Review Her Majesty the Queen Reviewing the Fleet at Spithead April 23rd 1856. The Gun Boats Rounding the line of Battle Ships

Coloured lithograph showing a panoramic view of the Naval Review at Spithead in 1856. Inscribed: "The Naval Review Her Majesty the Queen Reviewing the Fleet at Spithead April 23rd 1856. The Gun Boats Rounding the line of Battle Ships. From the original drawing in the possession of Her Majesty The Queen to whom this print is by permission-" then the paper is cut, but presumably said "-respectfully dedicated by Her Majesty's obedient and humble servant Oswald W. Brierly". The Duke of Wellington is ahead of the line of ships on the right of the picture.
