A port bow view of the Swedish cruise ship Gripsholm (1925) in the Gatun Locks, Panama Canal. She is in all-white livery and is in one of the east chambers heading south. Most of her hull is below the lock wall and her passengers and crew are lining the rails to watch her progress. The photographer is on the side wall of the next chamber up and four men on the lockside are hauling on a light line in the foreground.
