On board the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company cruise ship Viceroy of India (1929) at Spitsbergen, Norway.

On board the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company cruise ship Viceroy of India (1929) at Spitsbergen, Norway. The photographer is on the bridge to port of the centre line looking forward and to starboard showing the foremast and the starboard side of the forecastle. The ship's bell is just abaft the foremast and the ship is probably in Isfjorden. A cargo ship, seen from abaft her starboard beam, is at anchor in ballast and she appears to have an ice-breaking bow. She is single funneled, about 2000 tons, has four holds, twin derricks on her short forecastle and short poop and goalpost masts immediately before and abaft her central superstructure. Snow covered land is in the background. Negatives numbers P95238, P95243 and P95249 are in the same location.
