The Grand Fleet at sea
A distant starboard beam view of the battleship HMS Agincourt (1913) under way at sea as part of the 6th Division of the 1st Battle Squadron. Astern of her is the battleship HMS Neptune (1909) followed by HMS Colossus (1910) and two battleships of the St Vincent class. It is not possible to determine which is which, but these last two vessels are HMS Collingwood (1908) and HMS St Vincent (1908). The four ships were part of the 1st Battle Squadron's 5th Division.
