"This View of Her Majesty's Steam Frigate Cyclops..." is a maritime painting by the British artist William Calcott Knell (1830–1880), known for his detailed and atmospheric depictions of ships and seascapes. The painting portrays the Royal Navy steam frigate HMS Cyclops, a representation of British naval power during the Victorian era. Knell's work captures the Cyclops in its full glory, emphasizing the technological advancements of the time with the inclusion of steam power alongside traditional sailing rigs.

The painting is characterized by Knell's meticulous attention to detail, from the rigging and the steam emanating from the vessel's funnel to the dynamic sea conditions surrounding the ship. The artist's use of light and shadow, as well as his skillful rendering of the ocean's movement, conveys a sense of the Cyclops's power and the majesty of the maritime environment.

As with many of Knell's works, "This View of Her Majesty's Steam Frigate Cyclops..." serves not only as a piece of fine art but also as a historical document, reflecting the pride and significance of the Royal Navy during a period of British imperial expansion and industrial innovation. The painting is an example of marine art that would have been appreciated both for its aesthetic qualities and for its representation of national pride during the 19th century.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not specified, it likely falls within the mid to late 19th century, a period when Knell was most active and when the subject of the painting, the HMS Cyclops, would have been in service. The artwork is a testament to Knell's reputation as a marine artist and continues to be of interest to collectors, historians, and enthusiasts of maritime history and art.
