A starboard side view of the Ellerman Line cruise ship City of Nagpur (1922) alongside a berth in the Empress Dock at Southampton. The photographer is looking along the quay from abreast the ship's stern showing her superstructure and funnel and everything forward. She is dressed overall and is flying the Blue Peter from the foremast starboard yardarm. The number 43 26 feet long Southern Railway brow runs steeply from the quay to the ship's main deck. Crew members are on the main deck and they are being watched by passengers on the promenade deck and by passengers and crew on the boat deck. Cranes on the right are loading baggage and stores using cargo nets.
