The Lower Barracca Gardens, Fort St. Elmo and St. Elmo's Bridge, Valletta, Malta. The photographer is looking north from a vessel in Bighi Bay, probably the Orient Line passenger cruise ship Orontes (1929), showing dghaisas in the foreground. The motor lifeboat and four pulling lifeboats from the Orontes (1929) are fully manned in the harbour during a lifeboat drill. The lighthouse on Fort St. Elmo is to the left of centre of the picture.
