Painted by William Frederick Mitchell, this print showcases the impressive vessel in all its glory. The ship's white ensign flag proudly flutters in the wind, symbolizing its affiliation with the Royal Navy. The HMS Colossus belonged to the renowned Colossus class of warships, which were known for their strength and power. This particular illustration was featured in Charles Rathbone Low's book "Her Majesty's Navy" published around 1890. It offers a glimpse into naval history during this era. The image transports us back to a time when steamships ruled the seas and Britain reigned supreme as a global maritime power. The intricate details on display highlight both British engineering prowess and Victorian aesthetics.

From protecting trade routes to engaging in combat, these warships played an essential part in securing Britain's interests across Europe and beyond.
