Naval Review Spithead 1891

[Jean Lassaque]

A french naval visit took place in august 1891, the first one if not since the napoleonic wars at least for a long time. My grand father was a young engineer and took on this occasion his first warship photos. Here are four of these (scanned 9 x 6 cm glass plates negatives). Identifications are most uncertain and it would be welcome to obtain actual names. Maybe some reports of the event exist that would help.
Best regards
Jean
