A general view of the ships at Spithead during the Fleet Review
A general view looking towards the Isle of Wight of the line of warships for the Naval Fleet Review at Spithead. In the foreground is an unnamed ketch-rigged yacht under sail, towing its tender. In the middle distance is the battleship 'Dominion' (1903), partially obscuring the battleship 'Albion' (1898). To the right of the photograph can be seen the stern of the battleship 'Formidable' (1898). The coast of the Isle of Wight is in the background.
