"The Death of Admiral Lord Nelson, in the Moment of Victory!" is a satirical print by the British caricaturist and printmaker James Gillray, created in 1805. The artwork is a response to the death of Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson, who was killed during the Battle of Trafalgar, a pivotal naval engagement during the Napoleonic Wars. Gillray, known for his sharp wit and political commentary, often depicted events and figures of the time with a blend of humor and critique.

This particular print captures the moment of Nelson's death aboard his flagship, HMS Victory, as the British fleet triumphed over the combined French and Spanish navies. While the event was a significant British victory and a moment of national mourning, Gillray's depiction is likely to contain elements of satire, reflecting on the nature of heroism, the cost of war, or the public's reaction to Nelson's death.

The print is an example of the vibrant political and social satire for which Gillray was renowned. His work often graced the windows of print shops in London, where it was viewed by a wide cross-section of society. "The Death of Admiral Lord Nelson, in the Moment of Victory!" would have been part of this public discourse, contributing to the contemporary conversation about the war and its heroes.

As with many of Gillray's prints, this piece is characterized by its intricate detail and expressive characters, which convey a narrative beyond the simple depiction of events. The artwork remains an important cultural artifact, offering insight into the British public's perception of the Napoleonic Wars and the complex figure of Nelson, as well as showcasing Gillray's artistic legacy as a master caricaturist of the Georgian era.
