The battle, which took place on October 21, 1805, off the southwest coast of Spain, near Cape Trafalgar, resulted in a significant victory for the British under the command of Vice Admiral Horatio Lord Nelson.
Huggins, known for his detailed and vivid maritime scenes, captures the tense moments as the fleets converge. His work is characterized by dramatic realism and attention to the intricate details of the ships and the turbulent sea.
