Russian Cruiser Aurora, 85 inch model by ArtCase Restorations
Russian Cruiser Aurora
Commissioned in 1896, the Pallada-class Russian cruiser was built in St Petersburg, intended for service in the Pacific.
Along with the two other in her class, Aurora served during the Russo-Japanese war, where she survived the Battle of Tsushima.
Aurora reportedly fired the first shots of the October Revolution, signalling the start of the attack on the Winter Palace.
"In 1917 the Aurora crew members were crucial participants in the February and October Revolutions as well as the following Civil War and simultaneous defence against foreign intervention.
In 1922–1923, the Aurora was one of the first ships to be commissioned for service as a training ship, and served as such until 1940, allowing cadets from naval schools to complete their sea time practice. During these years, the cruiser also visited lots of foreign ports.
In 1924, the cruiser was awarded the Red Banner of the CEC of the USSR and the Order of the Red Banner in 1927."
