'Ah! the Navy arn't what it was!' (Greenwich Pensioner) Long Caption: (caricature) Two Greenwich Pensioners lamenting changing times and standards. The one on the left is in right profile with his hands behind his back and has a peg-leg right leg. The one on the right, in back view, leans on a stick in his left hand: the other arm is missing at the shoulder. Both wear blue jackets and breeches, grey stockings and cocked hats. A balustrade similar to that in the Hospital colonnades is lightly sketched in the background. Credit line: © National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, London Object: PAH3319 Artist: H. C.
