Vintage photographs of battleships, battlecruisers and cruisers.

To go directly to photos of a specific ship, simply enter her name in the search window (little white space) at the upper left. Ditto for a type of warship, country, year, etc..., e.g. battlecruiser. You can click on an individual photograph to view it alone against a dark background. When you want to go back to the page, just click outside the picture. Please note that I resize, denoise/despeckle/descratch and generally crop the photos to show mostly the ship itself in the space available.

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.
