Caption: Probably photographed at the time of her completion, perhaps at the start of her transfer from Cherbourg to Toulon by way of France's interior river and canal waterways. The vessel was built at Le Havre, delivered to the Navy at Cherbourg, and proceeded up the Seine River, reaching Paris on 6 May 1885 and Toulon on 30 May 1885. Note that the ship is under tow.
