Description
English: The 'Brunswick' and the 'Vengeur du Peuple' at the Battle of the First of June, 1794

The 'Brunswick' is shown in action between the sinking 'Vengeur' on the left and the French 'Achille', 74 guns on the right. The prime version of this picture is BHC0471 and, though said to be signed and dated, the quality of this version does not look good enough to be by Pocock so the matter needs to be checked.
