Flower sellers in Avenue Zarco by the passenger landing pier at Funchal, Madeira.

A street scene at Funchal, Madeira. The photographer is looking south-south-west down a steeply sloping road with buildings on either side showing the rooftops of buildings near the harbour, including a large warehouse or factory with a brick-built circular chimney on the left. The steeple of the Catedral of Nossa Senhora da Assuncao is on the right and the clock in the tower is reading 1.55. A Canadian Pacific Steamships Duchess class passenger cruise ship, seen from abaft her starboard beam, is anchored offshore and dressed overall. In the right background is the Portuguese Navy sloop Republica (1915), also seen from abaft her starboard beam.
