Sørensen was in Sweden in July 1861 to cover the departure of the Swedish King Charles XV to France and Britain for the Danish weekly <i>Illustreret Tidende</i>. The King travelled with the Swedish-Norwegian training squadron, and Sørensen drew the ships for the magazine on July 27 and made this painting, dated July 30. The flagship was the steam ship of the line <i>Stockholm</i>, seen to the left.</div>
