Summary

Description
English: This print shows Nelson celebrating his victory at the Nile with his men on board his flagship, the ‘Vanguard’. Nelson himself was wounded in the head at the Nile and a bandage is visible just below his hat. Nelson's interest in and care for his men made him a much-loved leader and while it is very unlikely that a scene like this ever occurred it reflects a popular sentiment. The print includes the words of a song written in celebration.
