WOW, The Diorama top end all dioramas

In the main room of my fathers house in Norfolk, the top section of the walls have been painted with the theme the history of the sea with Victory and Nelson etc.

This was not done by my father but by the previous owner, an old gent by the name of Colonel Dickers.

My father has never painted it and did at one stage try to clean it.

And now he is going to sell his house, I dont see someone else keeping that painting on the walls and it is beautiful, I must remember to take photos of it when I get up there next as t will be missed.
Present Build:

H.M.S. Victory
H.M. Bark Endeavour
