THE BATTLE OF TRAFALGAR

HMS Victory, the flagship of Admiral Horatio Nelson, breaks through the combined French & Spanish enemy line at 1.00pm on 21st October 1805. A broadside has crippled Admiral Villeneuve’s French flagship Bucentaure, seen off Victory’s port side, while Nelsons gunners fire a second broadside into the Santisima Trinidad. Just astern, the Temeraire manoeuvres to trap the Redoubtable between herself and Victory, and thus seal her fate. 

 

Published in 2005 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Nelson’s great victory, it is regarded by many as the finest and most accurate account of this famous sea battle painted in recent times.

HORNBLOWER AND THE INDEFATIGABLE

Robert’s glorious Maritime Masterwork depicts the exploits of eighteenth century naval hero Horatio Hornblower. In this triumphant visual recreation, the Royal Navy frigate Indefatigable, under the command of Captain Pellew and with the young Midshipman Hornblower aboard, engages and captures a French frigate.

A gripping tale, combined with Robert’s inordinate mastery of the sea on canvas, makes this piece a magnificent example of maritime art.
