Vice Admiral Vladimir Alexeyevich Kornilov (Влади́мир Алексе́евич Корни́лов; 13 February 1806 – 17 October 1854) was a Russian naval officer who took part in the Crimean War and is known for his battle against the Pervaz-ı Bahrî in what is considered the first battle between steam ships.[1]
Kornilov was born on his family estate in Staritsky District, Tver Governorate in 1806. His father was governor of Irkutsk. Kornilov entered the naval service in 1823, and in 1827 he fought in the Battle of Navarino as a midshipman aboard the fleet's flagshipAzov.
Portrait of Vladimir Alexeyevich Kornilov by Karl Brullov on board of the brig Themistocles. 1835. Paper, watercolour, pencil, varnish. 40.4 x 28.9 cm. The State Russian Museum, St. Petersburg, Russia. The Portrait of V. A. Kornilov, Captain of brig Themistocles, was painted during an expedition in Greece and Turkey. Athens, 1835
In 1841 he became the first captain of the battleshipTwelve Apostles, he disciplined the crew and participated with it in the Black Sea Fleet Review (held every seven years) before Grand Duke Konstantin Nikolayevich. He sailed to London in 1847 to buy a new steam frigate. In 1849 he became chief of staffBlack Sea Fleet.
On November 17, 1853,[2] with his flag hoisted aboard the 11-gun steam frigateVladimir (commanded by Lieutenant-Commander Grigory I. Butakov) met a 19-gun Turkish vessel, Pervaz-ı Bahrî, when they were cruising close to Penderakli. Kornilov gave the order of engaging the enemy and Vladimir joined battle against Pervaz-Bahri. The Ottoman ship had no bow and stern artillery, so every time it employed its side artillery, Butakov manoeuvred to rake its stern. Considering that the battle was taking too long, Kornilov gave the order to speed the sinking of the enemy. Cpt. Butakov ordered to speed up the ship and approaching the enemy to around 100 metres (330 ft), fired canister rounds from all his side guns. Pervaz-Bahri had suffered heavy casualties in the three-hour-long battle and hauled its flag. The ship was transported to Sevastopol where it was commissioned into the Russian Navy as Kornilov.[3] The battle resulted in 22 dead Ottoman Sailors, including the commander Said Pasha and another 18 wounded.[2] Meanwhile, the Russians had two dead, and two others were injured. [2]
Rest of the Waredit
Sometime after the Battle against the Pervaz-Bahri, Kornilov was sent as reinforcement for Nakhimov's squadron.[1] Kornilov arrived around the end of the Battle of Sinop, where he chased the Ottoman frigate Taif after it departed for Istanbul. However, the frigate got away. [1]

During the Crimean War, Kornilov was responsible for the defence of Sevastopol.[4] He was killed early in the siege and was buried in the Admirals' Burial Vault.[5]
Legacyedit
In the 1890s a statue of Kornilov alongside Pavel Nakhimov was put up in Sevastopol.[6] A bust portraying Russian admirals and sailors from the Crimean War, including Vladimir Alexeyevich, was erected at Sevastopol Park after renovations in 2008.[7][8]
