Summary

A Monitor with 14-inch Guns Shelling Yeni Sher Village and the Asiatic Batteries
image: A British Monitor ship shelling a village off the coast of the Dardanelles. The ship has her guns pointed towards
the cliffs on the left of the composition. A trail of grey smoke steams from her funnel, but also from the guns on deck which have just
been fired. There are several other ships at sea in the distance, and a spurt of water from return gunfire just in front of the

Monitor.
