whole: a schematic drawing for Dazzle camouflage, featuring a hand-drawn and hand-painted port-side view of a warship.
Four superstructure details have been applied above the ship's scheme. All major text is hand-lettered, with the colour designations
applied with an ink stamp.
image: a port-side view of a Royal Navy '24 Class' sweeping sloop, representing HMS Silvio, HMS Sefton and HMS Sir Bevis.
HMS Order Nos. 65/66/67
'Group F' was part of a sequence of 'shared' Dazzle camouflage schemes [Groups 'A' to 'G'] intended to serve the Royal Navy's fleet of '24
Class' sweeping sloops.
The port-side design must be considered the principle drawing of the two schemes as it carries the ship and scheme details, as well as the
superstructure camouflage scheme. | Publisher: | http://www.iwm.org.uk | Subjects: | SIR BEVIS (HMS) Transport Department SEFTON (HMS) shipping Ministry of Shipping First Battle of the Atlantic 1914-1918 Royal Navy Dazzle Section Camouflage dazzle / marine camouflage SILVIO (HMS) First World War Atlantic Ocean | Source: | Imperial War Museum | Creator: | Ministry of Shipping, Transport Department | Identifier: | http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/o... | Go to resource |
