Photograph of a print publication of two images. The top image shows a view of old Greenwich Palace in the background, given as a hospital for old sailors, and showing Dreadnought Seamen's Hospital to the right in Greenwich, London. Dreadnought was used as a first hospital ship for infectious diseases with an ambulance boat alongside. The bottom image is a photograph of the gateway of St. Bartholomew's Hospital, with a statue of its founder, King Henry VIII.
