The painting depicts the HMS Temeraire, a famous 98-gun ship that played a significant role in the Battle of Trafalgar, being towed by a steam tug along the Thames in 1838. The ship was being taken to Rotherhithe in order to be dismantled and sold as scrap. Turner seems to have painted his famous painting - The Fighting Temeraire - from the balcony at the Angel Inn, situated at 101 Bermondsey Wall East.
