"Lord Nelson's Funeral Procession by Water from Greenwich to Whitehall" is a distinguished engraving by J. Clark and H. Marke, published in 1806 by Orme, and is based on an original work by the eminent British artist Joseph Mallord William Turner. This piece is part of "The History and Graphic Life of Nelson," a publication dedicated to celebrating the life and achievements of Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson, one of Britain's most revered naval heroes. Turner, renowned for his expressive colourisations, imaginative landscapes, and turbulent, often violent marine paintings, captures the solemnity and grandeur of Lord Nelson's funeral procession with his characteristic mastery over light and atmosphere.

The artwork commemorates the final journey of Lord Nelson following his death at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805, a pivotal naval engagement during the Napoleonic Wars that confirmed British naval supremacy. The procession depicted by Turner and subsequently engraved by Clark and Marke, illustrates the moment when Nelson's body was transported from Greenwich to Whitehall, marking the beginning of his state funeral ceremonies. This event was a significant national occasion, drawing vast crowds and eliciting widespread public mourning, reflecting Nelson's status as a national hero.

Turner's work, through its publication in "The History and Graphic Life of Nelson," not only serves as a historical document but also as a piece of artistic heritage that encapsulates the collective memory and reverence held for Nelson. It showcases Turner's ability to convey the solemnity and significance of historical events, making it a valuable piece for both art historians and scholars of British history. The engraving by J. Clark and H. Marke, under the publication of Orme in 1806, further disseminated Turner's vision, allowing a wider audience to engage with the legacy of Lord Nelson and the artistic genius of Turner.
