A slightly distant starboard side view, taken from abaft the beam, of the Italian passenger/cargo liner Citta di Trieste (1915) moored in the Grand Harbour stern-on to the Barriera (Quarry) Wharf, Valletta, Malta. She has a windsail ventilator rigged aft of her second funnel and her stern is out of the picture. The photographer is looking east-by-south from the Upper Barracca showing numbers 3, 4, 5 and 6 guns in the Saluting Battery in the foreground. At moorings in Bighi Bay are the Orient Line passenger cruise ship Orontes (1929) seen from abaft her port beam and the Royal Navy aircraft carrier Glorious (1916) seen from just abaft her port beam. The breakwater, Fort Ricasoli, Fort Rinella and the Royal Naval Hospital are in the background.
