//-->FRONTISPIECE: This lithograph after Sir Oswald Walters Brierly shows the British Baltic Fleetsailing through the Great Belt on 26 March 1854, the day before Britain declared itself at war withRussia, at the start of the campaign in the Baltic. All the ships are carefully delineated; Sir CharlesNapier ’s flagship, the 131-gun Duke of Wellington (with the paddle vessels Leopard and Vulture on thestarboard flank) is followed by the St Jean d’Acre, Royal George, Princess Royal, Cressy and the fourscrew blockships Edinburgh, Hogue, Ajax and Blenheim, as well as four screw frigates (Impérieuse,Arrogant, Amphion and Tribune) and another two paddle warships (Valorous and Dragon); the screwfrigate Dauntless at anchor on the right provides the rounding mark.The fleet, the first to be composed entirely of steam-powered vessels, had sailed from Spithead13 days before. Although quickly augmented by other ships of the line, sailing as well as steam-driven ones, it soon became apparent that it lacked the support of gunboats and mortar vesselsappropriate for operations in shallow coastal waters, a shortcoming that was not to be corrected untilthe following year ’s campaign.
