Imperial Russian Navy predreadnought battleship Georgii Pobedonosets in Sevastopol, 1890.

She had an unusual arrangement for her main armament, with two forward turrets located on each side of the bridge and a single centrally-located turret aft. Unlike the other three, earlier, vessels in her class, which had compound armour made of iron and steel, Georgii Pobedonosets's armour consisted solely of steel.
