A distant view of Palermo, Sicily, from the south slope of Monte Pellegrino.

A distant view of Palermo, Sicily, from the Via Santuario on the south slope of Monte Pellegrino. The photographer is looking south-south-east showing the zigzag road winding its way down the mountain to the district of Arinella. A shipyard is in the centre of the picture. On the right the construction of the Santa Lucia Mole is almost complete and work has started on the Piave Mole. A two-funneled passenger cruise ship is anchored out in the bay and mountains are in the background.
