The debate will continue, I have been informed that the Scharnhorst was fitted with a sloping funnel top in 1943 and the photo could be her .

Further update to stop any doubt, I have heard from german-navy.de who confirm that the ship in the photo is the French battleship Richelieu. Thanks to everyone for their interest and info.
