I think Savoia-55 looks smaller than she really is because of the angular lens used in the photo. You can check with old photos (even though people was a little shorter in that time)  ;D

Same plane, different phot:

Two place cockpit. The two floats are actually hulls with space for navigator/gunners/radioman etc. this is not a small plane.

Span: 24.00m
Length: 16.75m
Height: 5.00m

Well, the most beautiful aircraft of 30's, in my opinion — Couzinet 70/71 "l'Arc-en-Ciel" (Rainbow).

Looks like a sort of a "mutant" Ju-52.

Well, Tante Ju is kind of a German square boxy thing, the Arc' en ciel is a simphony of French curves.  :D

That's not an AN-2, AN-2 was built using the rear portion of a license built C-47s fuselage. That's an early french plane I think.
