The Templo de Cristo Rey and the harbour at Messina, Sicily. The photographer is looking east from inland showing the Templo de Cristo Rey on the left and the harbour on the right. The Faro di San Raineri, a lighthouse built on a square tower of Fort San Salvatore is in the right background and the mainland of Italy is in the distance. The photograph is prior to 1934 as The Stele Madonna della Lettera (Our Lady of the Letter Monument) has not been erected on the end of the harbour breakwater.
