A starboard broadside view of the Orient Line cruise ship Ormonde (1917) alongside the Muelle de Barcelona at Barcelona, Spain.

A starboard broadside view of the Orient Line cruise ship Ormonde (1917) alongside the Italia Line terminal on the Muelle de Barcelona at Barcelona, Spain. The photographer is looking down from one of the supporting towers of the Transbordador Aeri del Port. The stern of the ship is just out of the picture. A single screw merchant steamship is undergoing repairs in the floating dock in the background and she does not appear to have a bow. Alongside the breakwater wharf in the right background is the stripped hull of a steamship, presumably being broken up. The negative is captioned "S.S. Ormonde at Barcelona Aug. 1934" and it has been signed "A.J. Sanson Captain" in the lower right corner.
