The Experimental Squadron getting under-weigh, at Spithead, July 15th 1845

Plate no 2 from 'The Experimental Squadron: a series of drawings on stone by L. Haghe, from paintings by J.M. Gilbert illustrative of H.M. visit to Spithead, July 15, 1845'. Note that other copies bear the name of R. Grove as co-publisher who, as well as Gilbert, the artist, was Lymington-based, so this copy may be the London issue. The series was popular and 1846 also saw a second edition.
