"Funeral Procession of the late Viscount Nelson, from the Admiralty to St. Paul's, 9th January 1806" is a historical engraving created by the artist James Merigot, published in 1806 under the commission of Augustus Charles Pugin. The work commemorates the grand and solemn funeral procession of Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson, one of Britain's most revered naval heroes, who died at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The procession, which took place on January 9, 1806, was a significant national event, marking the final journey of Nelson from the Admiralty to his resting place in St. Paul's Cathedral.

The engraving captures the magnitude of the public mourning and the elaborate ceremonial tribute paid to Nelson, whose victory at Trafalgar secured British naval supremacy. It reflects the Georgian era's attention to detail and the importance of pageantry in state occasions. Merigot's work is not only an artistic representation but also a historical document that provides insight into the cultural and social practices of early 19th-century Britain.

Augustus Charles Pugin, an Anglo-French artist, architect, and architectural draughtsman, is known for his significant contributions to the illustration of topographical works and for his role in shaping the Gothic Revival in England. His decision to publish this engraving underscores the impact of Nelson's death on British society and the collective desire to memorialize a national hero. The piece remains a valuable artifact for both art historians and those studying the Napoleonic Wars and British naval history.
