ehhh... in that period ship designed progressed incredibly quickly. The first Ironclad ship, which was basically a wooden ship with iron plates bolted on to it, was launched in 1860 and the first dreadnought (what is in the picture) was launched in 1906.
Before 1860 everything was wooden and after 1906 ships basically looked like battleships, which were in service up until the 90s.
