Summary
English: The protected cruiser San Francisco (Cruiser No. 5) rides at anchor in the white-and-buff of the 1890s. Her wood-paneled wheelhouse and her 6-inch broadside battery give her an old-fashioned effect that combines oddly with her steel hull and breechloading guns. A pedestal-mounted 6-pounder rapid-fire gun, along with a similarly-mounted Gatling gun, can be seen just below the second stack; other such guns, intended for close-in defense against torpedo boats, are mounted elsewhere on San Francisco's decks. She carries heavy spars on fore- and mainmasts, but no sails.
USS San Francisco (C-5/CM-2) was a steel protected cruiser in the United States Navy. She was later named Tahoe and then Yosemite.
