A port bow view, taken from wide off the bow, of the Orient Line cruise ship Orontes (1929) anchored and moored in the San Marco Basin at Venice, Italy. She has both anchor chains deployed but her port anchor is still suspended from its hawse and she is moored to a buoy astern. The photographer is looking south-west from the Riva Schiavoni showing gondolas and ferry jetties in the right foreground with the domes of the Santa Maria della Salute in the background.
