An unidentified Orient Line passenger cruise ship alongside a wharf at Palermo, Sicily. The photographer is looking along the wharf from close to the stern of the ship showing part of her port side including her lifeboats. She has two funnels. Most of her hull is obscured by two horse drawn 2-wheeled carts that are laden with woven baskets. A stack of wooden packing cases and more woven baskets are on the quayside. A line of motor cars is on the left.
