There are records of two versions of the Coronation review of ships off Spithead in 1953. This is the larger one at 21.5 x 120.8 cm and the other one, Assembling for Review, Spithead,1953 (c1960), is 40.6 x 61. Because the sizes are not always quoted in exhibition catalogues some of our attributions may not be correct.
