The photograph shows crew on board the Turkish ship
Nedjim i Shevket. The ship was a central battery ship of 2,080 tons with
one 9 in gun and four 7 in guns (Armstrong's) as well as smaller,
lighter guns. The picture shows the stern of the ship as the men are
being exercised with the commander standing in the foreground. A bugler
has blown the 'still' at which all crew cease work and stand ready for
the next command.
