A general view of the waterfront at Funchal, Madeira. The photographer is looking north from on board a passenger cruise ship showing a small steam coaster at anchor in the harbour. The steeple of the Catedral of Nossa Senhora da Assuncao is on the right with the square tower of the Jesuit College Church to the left of it. In the centre on the waterfront is a tall brick-built column with a mast on top of it.
