Trouville-sur-Mer and the Touques River, France.

Looking north-west-by-north along the River Touques showing the town of Trouville-sur-Mer, France, on the north side of the river. A boat mooring pontoon is half submerged in the foreground and motor cars and horse drawn cabs are parked on the embankment. A large advertising sign for Picon Aperitif Tonique is painted on the flank wall of a building and the spire of the Church of Notre Dame des Victoires is on the skyline on the right. The hulk of a wooden fishing vessel with CT.50 on the bow is on shore on the left and beyond it is the impressive casino, built in 1912.
