HMS Victory was moved to a dry dock in Portsmouth Dockyard in 1922 so this painting must pre-date that as it would not be visible from this angle after that date.
The painting is initialled by the artist to the bottom right hand corner.
The painting has a gold card mount with glazed gilt wood frame.
The back of the frame has a hand written note detailing the painting and artist.
