Notes |
Thomas Goldsworthy Dutton was one of the finest lithographers of shipping scenes and ship portraits of the nineteenth century. His work was exhibited on many occassions at the Royal Society of British Artist's gallery in Suffolk. HMS Agamemnon was a 64-gun third-rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy. She saw service in the American Revolutionary, French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, and fought in many of the major naval battles of those conflicts. She is remembered as being Nelson's favourite ship, and was named after the mythical ancient Greek king Agamemnon, being the first ship of the Royal Navy to bear the name. |
