The anchorage at Ajaccio, Corsica

The anchorage at Ajaccio, Corsica, seen from the waterfront. A palm tree, canvas covered commodities and a few people are in the foreground. An Orient Line passenger liner, seen from off her port bow, is at anchor in the bay. There were five of these ships built between 1924 and 1929 and they were all used for occasional cruising. The far side of the bay is backed by wooded hill slopes and mountains. A vertical format negative that is out of focus.
