The floating market and Santa Anna Bay at Willemstad, Curacao.

The floating market and Santa Anna Bay at Willemstad, Curacao. The photographer is on the north side of the Waaigat entrance looking west-south-west showing a number of small sailing vessels of the floating market berthed on the De Ruyterkade. They have awnings rigged above their decks. Boxes of produce are stacked on the quay and beyond them are 2-masted schooners berthed on the Punda district quay. A tall lattice wireless mast is on the left. The Otrabanda district is on the west wide of the bay and one of the buildings is the Hotel Americano.
