Rare lithograph. Printed area 110 x 210mm (4¼ x 8¼").
A pair of profile portraits, drawn when the two naval heroes were captains serving in the West Indies.

According to the National Maritime Museum, ''probably in late 1784, they met on Antigua at Commissioner Moutray’s house. Mrs Mary Moutray later recalled, ‘Nelson had lost his hair from fever, and its place had been so grotesquely supplied by the art of the West Indian perruquier, that Captain Collingwood said to him one day, ‘I must draw you, Nelson, in that wig.' ... When the laughter which created this was over, Captain Nelson said, ''And now, Collingwood, in revenge I will draw you in that queue of yours''. NNM PAD3989 for the lithograph, PAJ3941 & PAJ3942 for the original sketches.
