A port side view of the fore part of the Royal Navy aircraft carrier Eagle (1946) in 12 berth in Bighi Bay, Grand Harbour, Malta. The photographer is in a boat near the stern of the carrier looking forward and to starboard showing the hull, including the angled deck, as far aft as the mirror landing aid sponson. Men on a floating pontoon are painting the hull near the boat boom and the port anchor is hanging down from the hawse.
