Armoured frigate. Collided with the Austrian ship of the line Kaiser at Lissa.

Ironclad Ré d'Italia, sunk at Vis battle in 1866. Error: probably this is the ship "Re di Portogallo", sister to the "Re d'Italia", as in the official site of Marina Militare italiana; it's impossible to verify in these days because the part of site related to ancient ships is offline for maintenanc Photo: Unknown. Given the famous nature of the Battle of Lissa and the involvement of both ships of this class in that battle, it is a reasonable presumption that this photograph was published in Italy before 1978 without complying with U.S. copyright formalities or after 1978 without copyright notice., Public domain · Wikimedia Commons
