Horatio Nelson, 1. vikomt Nelson KB byl britský námořní vojevůdce, je považován za národního hrdinu. Jako důstojník Royal Navy vynikl ve válkách proti Francii, nakonec dosáhl hodnosti viceadmirála (1801) a stal se i členem Sněmovny lordů. Vítězstvím v bitvě u Abukiru v roce 1798 získal Velké Británii námořní převahu ve Středozemním moři, kde se pak stal vrchním velitelem. V roce 1805 potvrdil nadvládu Británie na moři vítězstvím v bitvě u Trafalgaru, kde porazil spojené francouzsko-španělské loďstvo. Sám byl ale v bitvě zabit, když ho na palubě řadové lodě HMS Victory zasáhla kulka vypálená z francouzské lodě Redoutable.
