Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Crop of File:British ship with early dazzle camouflage 1. The subtitle on the original source says "THE NEW WAR PAINT OF THE BRITISH FLEET. Costly experience at the Dardanelles led to the use of a new war paint for the ships in the straits. The dappled coloring makes the vessel a difficult target". Possibly the ship is the HMS Dartmouth (according to Murphy, Hugh; Bellamy, Martin (2009). «The Dazzling Zoologist: John Graham Kerr and the Early Development of Ship Camouflage». The Northern Mariner. XIX: 171–192, p. 180).
