HMS Keppel (D84) Royal Navy Thornycroft Type Flotilla Leader entering harbour in 1943, shown in a port view. This historic Royal Navy photo print presents HMS Keppel during wartime service, with the harbour setting and port-side perspective giving the image a strong period naval character. As a Second World War flotilla leader with an important convoy escort record, this image makes a powerful choice for military wall art, Royal Navy history displays, Battle of the Atlantic collections and traditional British maritime wall decor.
HMS Keppel was a Thornycroft Type Flotilla Leader built for the Royal Navy at the end of the First World War. She was completed too late to serve in that conflict, but saw extensive service in the inter-war years and during the Second World War. She became an effective convoy escort and U-boat killer, being credited with the destruction of five U-boats during the Battle of the Atlantic. She was the second of three ships named for 18th century Admiral Augustus Keppel.

Framing & Mounting
We provide a bright white mount as standard. If you prefer an alternative colour, please contact us. Depending on the print's size and orientation, we may occasionally need to adjust the mount's size or shape to ensure the best presentation.
Our frame selection is extensive, and due to website limitations not every style can be listed. If you have a particular colour or design in mind, please get in touch and we will be happy to discuss available options.
The final frame size and proportions may vary slightly based on the image ratio. Occasionally, frames may need to be a little taller or wider than the chosen size; however, they will never be smaller than the specified dimensions.
Your order will be crafted by award-winning framing technicians based in central England, with decades of combined experience. Using the finest FUJI professional photographic papers and premium materials, they ensure exceptional print and frame quality.
Our hand-picked craftsmen and women work with state-of-the-art printing and cutting equipment, yet every frame is still assembled by hand and subject to rigorous quality checks. Their dedication consistently results in outstanding work, appreciated by many returning customers.

The sizes shown denote the size of the print before framing.
- Are your images adjusted or cropped?
Depending on the image, we may need to crop or resize slightly to get the best result. Our framers use their experience to choose the most visually pleasing option, which can occasionally mean a slightly different frame shape to the preview shown. Either way, the finished product will always be the size you selected, or larger, never smaller. - Is the mount colour always the same?
We provide a bright white mount as standard. If you'd like a different colour, please contact us. - Do you offer other frame styles?
Yes, we have hundreds of frames available. Website limitations mean we can't list them all, so if you have a particular colour or style in mind, please get in touch and we'll talk you through the options. - Do you have images other than those shown on the website?
No, all of our available images are shown on the site, though we add new ones regularly. - Can I buy a digital file (JPG or PNG) to print at home?
No, sorry, we're unable to supply digital image files.
