Summary edit

Description
Español: La fuente de la foto dice: "Restos del cañón del transporte armado o crucero Angamos, reventado, conservados en el Apostadero Naval de Talcahuano, hacia 1910. Dicho buque fue adquirido en 1879, durante la Guerra del Pacífico, y armado de un cañón Armstrong de 8 pulgadas, de un nuevo tipo, y de 7.000 metros de alcance, excepcional para la época. El Angamos fue destinado principalmente al bloqueo del puerto fortificado peruano del Callao, el que fue objeto de varios bombardeos por parte de la Escuadra chilena. En una de estas acciones, el 9 de diciembre de 1880, dicha pieza se destruyó al efectuar un disparo, debido a que los anillos que afirmaban sus muñones eran demasiado débiles, según se determinó en la investigación ulterior. Fuente: Álbum Apostadero Naval de Talcahuano. Obras del Puerto Militar y Comercial, 1910."
