Diving boys alongside a pontoon attached to a terminal in the north harbour at Algiers.

Diving boys operating from double-ended open rowing boats near a pontoon causeway connected to a terminal in the north harbour at Algiers. The photographer is looking down from on board a passenger cruise liner showing some of the passengers on the pontoon watching the boys dive for coins. Two of the boats are named Bienvenue and Josephine. In the background is the aft end of the tug Furet II (1930).
