Exhibited: London, Earl's Court 'The Victorian Era Exhibition' 1897, Historical and Commemorative Section, No. 1 (old exhibition label refers). Other Notes: Captain Sir William Peel (1824-1858), was one of the great British naval heroes - a British Naval Officer and recipient of the Victoria Cross, effectively three times over, in the Crimean War. He was the third son of the great Prime Minister Sir Robert Peel and, like his father, went to Harrow. He entered the Navy at the age of 14. He was a Commander of the Naval Brigade in the Crimean War. In 1854 at the Siege of Sebastopol, he and his Brigade were charged with the task of supplying ammunition to the artillery when a Russian shell, fuse still alight, landed among them and their explosives. Whilst others ran, Peel picked up the shell and threw it over the parapet. The shell burst as it left his hands. A month later at the Battle of Inkerman, Peel noticed a platoon was in grave danger of being cut off and surrounded by Russian forces. He braved a heavy barrage to lead the platoon to safety. In the following year, Peel led his troops over a ridge putting himself in the line of fire. He was shot and seriously injured. He was awarded the Victoria Cross for all of these immense acts of bravery, one of the earliest officers to be awarded the Victoria Cross during the Crimean War. Sir William had estates in Sandy, Bedfordshire, which he bought with a legacy from his father's death in 1850, and he decided to build the Sandy to Potton railway in 1857. Sadly the Sandy-Potton Light Railway only lasted from 1857-1861; Sir William named one of the engines "Shannon" after his frigate. The locomotive "Shannon" (GWR Railway Museum) and its engine shed still survive. Captain Sir William Peel was later sent to India and was wounded again at the Relief of Lucknow. He died in India from smallpox aged 34. There are three statues of the great Victoria Cross holder - all by William Theed the Younger (British, 1804-1891) - they are at the Maritime Museum (1860); Sandy Church, Bedfordshire (1861); and at Flagstaff House in Barrackpore, India (1863). Sir William Peel's home was The Lodge in Sandy, Bedfordshire, now the home of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. Oil Portrait - Longish scratch lower right. Dirt under the glass. Not examined outside the frame. The wooden plate with artist's name and title loose on one side. Frame slightly chipped, especially along the top edge.The print is foxed.
