A port side view, taken from abaft the beam, of the Royal Navy battleship Resolution (1915) under way in Grand Harbour, Malta, bound out and making smoke. She is passing the Anchor Line passenger cruise ship Tuscania (1922) which is at moorings in Bighi Bay, Grand Harbour, Malta. A London class (1927) heavy cruiser of the 1st Cruiser Squadron is also in Bighi Bay. The photographer is in the Upper Barracca, Valletta, looking east-by-south. An unidentified "Tirrenia" passenger/cargo ship is berthed stern-on to the Barriera (Quarry) Wharf in the left foreground.
