Framed Print of The Infant School at Woolwich Arsenal, as seen by the Czar, 1874. Creator: Unknown
The Infant School at Woolwich Arsenal, as seen by the Czar, 1874. Engraving from a photograph by Mr. H. Baden Pritchard, of the War Office. The big gun that was built for her Majesty's ship Devastation was called the Woolwich Infant by way of a joke upon its size...the great guns of more recent construction, weighing likewise 35 tons each, are designed to endure a more severe ordeal of their strength. When the Emperor of Russia visited Woolwich, one of the sights offered to his inspection was the assemblage of fifty guns, large and small...The very large one, suspended from the crane, is even bigger than those we have mentioned, its weight being 38 tons. Four 35-ton guns are placed in the middle of the row; the others are twenty-five guns weighing twenty-five tons each...Shot and cartridges belonging to the largest guns are placed on the ground near their muzzles. At the feet of the gentlemen who stand looking upon this display of gigantic artillery weapons lies one of the small mountain-guns of steel, throwing a 7-lb. shot or shell, invented for the Abyssinian War, and lately used against the Ashantees. Its length is about 3 ft. and it may be carried with ease by two men, slinging it on a pole, or it may travel on the back of a mule'. From Illustrated London News, 1874.
