The Porto Grande waterfront, Ortigia, Syracuse, Sicily. The photographer is looking east-north-east from on board a cruise ship anchored in the harbour showing two small commercial craft alongside the quay. The Fonte Aretusa Garden at the south end of the Passagio Aretusa is on the right and the Hotel Des Etrangers is between it and the Ponte Aretusa. The Church of the Jesuit College is to the left of centre and the dome and tower of the cathedral can be seen above the roofline of the waterfront properties on the right.
