Mistral torpedo boats, from left, Siroco, Trombe and Audacieux, at Brest, France.
The depot ship in the background is the FR Navarin, the main centre for the mobile defences at the Mechanics School.
This image was produced from a series of original negatives used to promote the French Fleet of that era. Most of the negatives in this collection received retouching modifications for contemporary postcard or offset printing processes. The retouching was carried out to facilitate or improve the negatives tonal range for the printing process. Some enhancements such as fake clouds, waves, smoke and highlights might still be seen in this reproduction from those negatives.
