A general view of the Gamla Stan district of Stockholm, Sweden. The photographer is looking south-east from a very high vantage point showing passenger ferries alongside the Riddarholmshamnen on the west side of the island. The iron steeple of the Riddarholm Church is to the right of centre and the tower of Storkyrkan, officially named Sankt Nikolai Church, is on the left. In the centre is the steeple of the German Church and to the right of it, moored in the Saltsjon, is an Orient Line cruise ship. The district of Sodermalm is in the background.
