This photo, dating back to 1914, at the Fonderie e Acciaierie di Cornigliano, portrays the workers posing during the processing of the stern for the passenger ship Duilio. The turboship was commissioned by Navigazione Generale Italiana and was the first large Italian transatlantic, launched in 1916 and entered into service in 1923. The dimensions of the Duilio were considerable, just think that, at the time, it was the first Italian ship to exceed the 200 meters long and 20,000 tons in weight. The Duilio, one of the pride of Ansaldo production, sank in 1944, due to the bombing of the Allies.
