A wharf stacked high with pit props next to the tourist landing stage in Leningrad harbour, Russia. The photographer is looking down from the stern of a Swedish passenger cruise ship alongside the landing stage showing three Russian tugs and a cargo ship alongside the end of the wharf. The Russian owned cargo ship Oka (1918) does not have any deck cargo and her hatches are closed. Other steamships are alongside a long wharf in the background. The Swedish ship's ensign is in the foreground.
