A CREW PHOTOGRAPH ALBUM FROM H.M.S. POWERFUL, TAKEN BETWEEN APPROXIMATELY 1905-1911

(a lot)
The identity of the photographer is not certain, but there are two or three suggestive images that could identify him; Powerful is most famously associated with the Siege of Ladysmith, where she served in 1899. The views in this album provide a fascinating close-up look at her just after that action, from rarely-seen angles and vantage points.
