Description
English: Original title: This View, of the Defeat of the FRENCH and ITALIAN Squadrons, By his Majesty's Frigates AMPHION, ACTIVE, VOLAGE and CERBERUS after an Action of six hours, which ended in the French Commodore being driven on shore and burnt, another French Frigate (the Flora,) struck her colours, but escaped, the Corona of 40 Guns, and the Bellona of 28 Guns taken, the rest of their Squadron dispersed. Published by R. Dodd, 1 Nov 1811 The Amphion, shown in the middle foreground, was a 36-gun frigate of which William Hoste (later Sir William Hoste) had been captain since 13 October 1805. Between 23 June 1808 and 25 December 1809, the ship took or destroyed 218 enemy vessels. On this action, Hoste was outnumbered by six frigates to four, and by 276 guns and 2,000 men to 124 guns and 900 men. Two of the other three British frigates, shown to the right of this view, were the Cerberus and Active, to each side of the Venetian ship Corona, while the Volage is shown to the left of another Venetian ship, the Bellona.
