With a crew of 316, Atalante had an impressive armament, including six massive 194 mm breech-loading guns, four in a central battery below deck and two in barbettes on the upper deck. These could hurl a 75 kg shell over seven kilometres. At the bottom of the photograph is the solid brass ramming bow, weighing 20 tonnes.
