專家說明
Captain Philip de Saumarez (1710-1747) was a British naval officer who captained the HMS Nottingham, most famous for its capture of the French ship Mars in 1743. Saumarez was the original designer of the first naval officer uniforms for the Royal Navy but sadly was killed in the Second Battle of Cape Finisterre before his designs were realised. He is buried in Westminster Abbey where his monument was sculpted by Sir Henry Cheere.
