A view of the interior of Commander Viscount Curzon's cabin aboard HMS Queen Elizabeth (1913). This room was located on the aft end of the main deck. This picture provides an interesting pictorial reference of the accommodation of a senior officer aboard a ship of the Queen Elizabeth class, and shows an interesting mix of the personal as well as professional in terms of the items that can be seen. To the left are various items of uniform clothing, including outdoor and foul weather gear. Among them are Curzon's naval jacket with the wavy RNVR stripes on the sleeve. His leather camera case is hanging over his overcoat to the right of the clothes. The bookshelves above the desk are mainly occupied by bound and loose editions of The Illustrated War News, as well as the most recent editions of Jane's Fighting Ships. On the shelf above the latter are a number of scale waterline models of civilian and military vessels, which include a rather precariously balanced three-funneled liner. A stopwatch has been attached to the upper shelf rail by means of a clove hitch knot, and on the right of the lowest shelf is a post card commemorating Anglo-Japanese naval cooperation. The space around the desk is equally busy, sporting a variety of objects from newspapers to stationery and what may be bottles of inks and chemicals for developing photographs. The latter possibility is supported by the small towel spread across the desk and the small stack of cut sheet film on top of the newspaper to the right. The bulkhead at the head of the desk is adorned with calendars and a number of cards and pictures, the largest of which is a frame containing two different portraits of Curzon's mother.
