HMS Téméraire — Trafalgar 98-gun Second Rate

Generated illustration. Not a historical photograph. A three-decker of the line. Not a named-ship portrait and not a painting facsimile.

Overview

The namesake is already on Bucentaure — Overview. That note already points to the British 98-gun HMS Téméraire of Turner’s painting.1

The Namesake

This note covers that 98-gun namesake only. A painting year, a breaking-up scene, and a battle narrative stay on RESEARCH_QUEUE. The Fighting Temeraire — Turner Painting remains the queued picture note and is not written here.

The French Téméraire-Class Two-Deckers — French Naval Doctrine already leaves a British namesake off that page. This note does not reopen class doctrine or invent a gun-count beyond the 98 Bucentaure already states. HMS St George — 98-gun Second Rate is the other filled British 98.2
