The Praia da Boa Viagem at Monte Serrat, Bahia, Brazil. The photographer is looking north-west along the beach to the Forte de Monte Serrat. Residences front the Ria da Boa Viagem and a tram car is on the Ria Rio San Francisco. On the rise above the road is a large two storey ornate building with a balcony at first floor level and with a pyramid roof on a square tower in one corner and a statue on a square tower in the opposite corner.
